High CPU usage and slow website with net effect

[izachros]

Hello,

We are using vanta.net.min.js on a website and it seems that there is a huge CPU usage. Also, the website becomes a bit slow.

We included only the following files:
three.r95.min.js
vanta.net.min.js

Do we have to upload some other files/folders? Is there something to make it faster and reduce the CPU usage?

Thanks in advance.

I can confirm the GPU usage goes through the roof. This is happening even with the latest three.js from npm. It uses around 82% of the GPU on vanta demo site

Can confirm too. Fan is running max.

Any solution?

What I ended up doing was to make the canvas smaller, reduce the number of points and increase the spacing. Now the GPU stays at around 50%, which is still high mind you, but better nonetheless

I reduced the fps down to 10 for the waves - which ofc doesn't look nice - with a 100%h x 100%w canvas it still causes high load & fan going crazy (MBP'16).
