Re: [firebreath-dev] browser becomes standstill

[Richard Bateman]

Are you doing the rendering and such on the main plugin thread? You shouldn't be doing anything cpu intensive on that thread, as a general rule, because it can slow down the rest of the browser.

Also, which OS?

Hi all,

we are developing a 3d plugin using firebreath. we render buildings and the globe in the plugin(like google earth).

when the plugin renders many buildings(of course it takes much GPU and CPU), we can fluently browse in our plugin window.

but when we move the mouse out of plugin window to interact with the browser(switch to other tabs or click a link in the page), the browser seems to be locked, it will response to me after a few seconds.

when we return to the plugin page from other tabs, the plugin window will become blank for a few seconds, then it will show the right scene.

it seems that when we moves out of plugin, the browser saves something for it( probably the GPU back buffer or something else), and this results to the problem.

the problem happens in chrome and ie, but not in firefox.

does anyone know it is the problem of browser or our plugin?

Thanks and Regards
