High CPU usage for COG Shape



    1. Make a cog with 100 teeth
    2. Make any change to the cog.
    3. Very High CPU, around 340%

    The same Cog with 100 teeth in Affinity Designer consumes around 110% when editing and does this smoother around 60fps. I don't know if it's because of the cog tool or maybe the viewport needs some optimizations when a lot is happening at the same time on the screen. Anyway, the tool functions very well if not taking into consideration that is quite power-hungry hahaha.

    Thank you for your hard work 🙂

    Added to the backlog. Maybe will lead to better performance 🙂



  • That would be awesome, to be honest, just imagining something as smooth as Affinity Designer but with a feature set that Rivals or Surpasses Illustrator, makes me very excited and hyped to finally have a True Illustrator Killer.

    Hope I don't sound too arrogant with all those requests and critiques, I just really want this to be a great app for professional designers 🙂

    All requests are welcome 🙂
    They will be prioritized of course, bugs first, then features.
    Performance is critical, but getting to AD level might not be feasible in the short run.
    Maybe small improvements.
