Hello! Any chance deCDN might noticeably increase Pale Moon's CPU usage? I am getting unusual slowdowns on some websites. For example: https://www.insomnia.gr/articles/various/earth/i-kyvernisi-trump-exairei-smartphones-kai-ypologistes-apo-tous-neous-dasmous/
In a few, quick about:performance checks, deCDN 33.4 does often come out on top, although I cannot draw any conclusions. Thanks.

I don't think so; deCDN should only be active when something is actually loading, and then, sure, it'll be extremely active - it's intercepting every network request to check for relevancy to its task, and then reading files off the hard drive if there's something to replace.
After the page has loaded, however, there's nothing else the extension touches. If it's still active while the page is just sitting there, you have some other requests running and I suggest you look into the Network tab of the Browser Toolbox.

Thanks, I'll see what I can do. What I am noticing is that sometimes pages delay to load. There's some sort of unusual 10-20 sec. stall/struggle. Then, loading completes and CPU goes down.
Wonder is there's a conflict with eMatrix (or uBO?). In the above example though, both cdnjs.cloudflare.com and cdn.jsdelivr.net are whitelisted in ematrix (also, both "green" in uBO).

Sorry, but I have to give up. It noticeably increases CPU usage and slow things down a lot. Yes, using an old CPU and SSE2 Pale Moon but I don't remember ever having this problem with deCDN. This is recent and I tried all deCDN versions. Perhaps some conflict with recent PM versions, only noticeable on old systems or the SSE2 build?

Pale Moon hasn't changed anything that would effect deCDN other than patching a crash, as far as I know. If this is an older system, are you using an old platter hard drive for your primary drive? A good ol basic defrag might improve access time.

No, it's a SATA-2 SSD and RAM is more than adequate. I'll check with the security software as a last resort. Perhaps it started messing with the deCDN folder. Can't think of anything else, since this issue is new and the slowdown is noticeable. Thanks.

Could you please verify the page below? URL contains non-latin characters. deCDN reports no CDN resources, while LocalCDN reports injecting almost 40 (although its icon tooltip reports "LocalCDN (0)" - not sure what this means).
Also occurs on their main page, with a more standard URL: https://tovivlio.net/
Thank you

Not an issue. What you're seeing in the block count are Google Fonts, which deCDN doesn't intercept (at this time).

Should it block google fonts? Are they tracker stuff?

That feature is in testing at present. They're the same as any other content served from a CDN - Google (whether they do or not) can easily cross-reference every site you've been on that loads a Google font.
