Performance tips

3 min readtroubleshootingperformance

Slow uploads

  • Chunked uploads run at your network's upload speed. Test at fast.com.
  • WiFi > mobile hotspot for large videos.
  • The composer resumes interrupted chunk uploads; don't refresh — click "Retry upload" if it stalls.

Editor jank on long videos

  • >5 min video edits: use the editor's Proxy preview toggle (uses low-res preview while editing; full-res on export).
  • Close other browser tabs — the editor uses WebGL + FFmpeg WASM, both CPU-hungry.

Dashboard slow to load

  • Check /status for our current service state.
  • Hard-refresh (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R) to bypass stale service worker.
