Map is extremely laggy since the latest update
-
Since the most recent Windy.com update a few days ago, the map is extremely laggy. I'm on a very, very high-end computer, and yet it can take a second or two for the map to update after zooming a step or advancing the forecast time one step. Simply intolerable and practically unusable. This is using Firefox, the latest version (141). Chrome (also latest version) has the same issue, although it manifests itself slightly differently, with an initial lag and then a fast load, lag again, then fast load, and so on. Both worked perfectly fine, fast and smooth, before the recent update.
Nothing else has changed on my system in that time, and everything else, everywhere else, works just as fine as before, so this is very clearly a windy.com issue. -
@rdo118 Could you please tell us what versions have this issue in Windy? Do we talk about all of them or only radar or other layers?

What versions? This is the web version, running in browsers. What your internal version of that is, I don't know.
All layers are affected, but the weather radar layer stands out as not that laggy (it's not one I normally use - my main layers are wind, thunderstorm risk and rain/thunder). It's not good, and not normal, but if all other layers are 10 on lagginess scale, then weather radar is maybe a 2 or 3.
