Is it just me, or does everyone think that Replit is insanely slow? Is it because of the big project or what? It takes 5 seconds just to use the navbar and another 7 to open a file, not even mentioning scrolling down.
If anyone can fix this, please tell me, can I fix this crazy lag with a Google extension, or am I doing anything wrong? I mean, I’ll wait 13 seconds but when I keep editing different files, these few seconds add up; approximately 20-30% of my time is spent waiting for files to open…
If you are like me and upload tons of screenshots while guiding Agent or Assistant, these really slow down the environment. I had 200+ in the attached_assets folder, didn’t realize it, then deleted all and got a huge speed boost just from that.
Ask Agent or Assitance to review your project and look for issues that may be causing performance issues or overusing compute. I tell it do not take action until I say so, and to tackle any issues in priority order, let me test my app to make sure it still works, then only move on to the next suggestion once I have approved.
Those two have worked in 90% of cases where my environment was crawling, hope this is helpful!
Agreed. Also consider adding attached_assets to .gitignore if you don’t want those files being saved to git and GitHub if you sync. The default .gitignore is pretty basic, so could be an area to add more default.
