Maybe we are on to somthing here.
My hardware =BCM2835
Revision= a02082
And I DO have this problem.My hardware = BCM2709
I do NOT have this problem
I’ve long suspected that this was/is a hardware issue. Why? I’ve done nothing special or different to my Pi 3 (except for adding a fan), yet it runs flawlessly, smoothly, and without the cpu overload experienced by a few select users. Assuming they have done nothing out of the ordinary (most have done fresh installs of the OS and default install of MM) yet their Pi 3’s exhibit inordinate amounts of cpu load at rest and extreme cpu load with just a simple function like the compliments changing.
@strawberry-3-141 There’s no need for me to try your suggestion but perhaps someone experiencing this problem will test it and report back their findings.

Ill hook up my PI in a sec and test it. I am supposed to put that line of code in the main.css file right? (Just to be sure)
-
custom.css probably

Sad to report; Didn’t seem to solve the problem. YET, It almost seemed like the fade out animation was a tiny bit smoother, can’t say it for sure tho.

@TiemenMoesker bugger, also when you increase gpu memory to a higher level than 64mb default
Also it could still be unsupported in electron or it has to be taken to another element…

I’ve tried 64,128 and 256. No improvement :(
-
@TiemenMoesker maybe also @Jeff could have a look after his holidays as he is quiet familiar with css and he could check if the stuff I mentioned is valid

@strawberry-3.141 Alright, although I am not sure this has anything to do with css. First, because 99% of the people who have MM2 don’t have this problem, yet the same css. Second, I just found out that it’s not just the Newsfeed and the Compliments. I have installed the MMM-Earth module and the same thing happends. Time freezes, animation starts (not smooth at all, it only shows me one fade frame), CPU usage spikes to 99% and my PI is hotter than a BBQ.
I think it has something to do with the hardware.

Just set is to 96, still the same.
