• When adding around 24 pictures from our Media library (these are already being used with Final Tiles Grid Gallery), around 2 MB 6000 × 4000 each, to a gallery my browser became very unresponsive it took a minute to press the button to save the gallery. The CPU usage was through the roof, also loading the page where the gallery was on took a very long time.

    PC:
    Windows 10
    Chrome 64bit
    i5-6300HQ
    8GB RAM

    Server:
    Apache 2.4.29
    Nginx 1.13.6 (reverse-proxy)
    Php 7.1.14

    There is some optimisation to be done with this plugin before we can use it 😉

    Hi, are you talking about the admin panel or the frontend?

    If you could send me the URL (diego@greentreelabs.net) it would be very useful. I’m not seeing this behaviour actually on my dev configuration.

    Thank you

    In the admin panel mostly, and sorry, but I can’t give you the URL to our admin panel 😉

    I installed the plugin and created the first gallery. Then I tried adding the 24 jpg images and the browser tab froze and turned black after some time. I then closed the tab and went to the plugin again. This time I created a Gallery, added the pictures and clicked on a black screen where the Publish button used to be, and after a couple minutes it said something along the lines of “saved”. So I tried if the frontend would work properly.

    Sadly, the page on the frontend with this gallery was also very slow. I have’t checked my CPU usage there since I assumed the gallery was loading the full 6000 × 4000 images, while 300 x 200 would have been plenty. Maybe the CPU usage was too high as well, but I just assumed it was loading the original images instead of a reasonable sized version.

    These experiences already lead me to disable the plugin. Since it wasn’t usable we’ll stick with Final Tiles Grid Gallery for now.

    I never meant to ask you for your admin panel URL (also useless without credentials 🙂

    In the admin panel I use the original size as background images for the blocks, so it makes sense if the browser stressed the CPU to render those hi-res images.

    On the frontend the images are (clearly) resized so you should have not issue at all.

    However, the plugin is really young (1 week) and all kinds of feedbacks are very welcome, thank you.
