Hello,
a bit of a side question, but related to daily usage.
I use Salamander alongside various tasks (file transfers, sorting large files, etc.), and I noticed that when some heavy websites are open in the browser (lots of scripts / dynamic content), the whole system becomes less responsive.
Not only Salamander, but file operations also feel a bit less stable (small delays, slight slowdowns).
I know it’s not directly related to the software itself, but since many here run quite optimized setups, I was curious if anyone noticed similar interactions.
Maybe just a resource management issue on Windows side, or a browser using too much… haven’t fully looked into it yet.
Thanks
File management + heavy websites - overall performance impact?
Re: File management + heavy websites - overall performance impact?
Hello,
Just to add a small follow-up to my previous comment. I’ve been testing a bit more, and it really seems like the issue becomes more noticeable when the browser is under heavy load (multiple tabs, scripts, etc.), especially alongside file operations in Salamander.
Closing a few resource-heavy tabs definitely improves responsiveness, so it does point more toward system resource contention rather than anything specific to the file manager itself.
Out of curiosity, I also stumbled upon some discussions around how certain setups handle resource prioritization and system tuning. For example, some people mention that their overall experience varies depending on background processes, browser extensions, and even specific browsing environments like premium gaming with Highflybet Casino, which can sometimes be quite resource-intensive as well.
Still exploring, but I’m leaning toward it being more of a Windows scheduling / memory management behavior combined with browser usage rather than anything isolated.
Would be interested to hear if others have fine-tuned their systems to better handle this kind of mixed workload.
