Performance tips

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.
