1.7.4 did not fix the input performance degradation caused by opening both canvas and md simultaneously

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a new md file and input 5000-10000 characters, including Latex snippets.
  2. Create a new canvas and place this file into it. Open a new tab, one displaying the canvas and the other displaying the md file.
  3. Typing in the md file will still show lag.

Additional information

This may or may not fix the issue for you, but the Electron installer was updated for version 1.7.4, so you have an inherent mismatch in your configuration.

Electron can be updated by downloading the full installer package from the Obsidian website:

I am not sure which bug report you are referring to nor if it was marked fixed in v1.7.4.

Please, point me the original bug report. Moved to help section.

Thank you for your response. After reinstalling, the status has not changed.

Sorry, I got it mixed up. It seems the previous fix was for the panning issue. So, this should be a bug rather than a help request? After opening the canvas, the performance of normal markdown editing also drops to the same level as the canvas.

Ok, open a new bug report, make sure you follow the template and attach a copy of (or a link to) a markdown file where this happens.

Thank you, here it is ,Input performance degradation caused by opening both canvas and md simultaneously

Not sure if related - but while trying to figure canvas performance issues, I noticed that simply opening a canvas will cause changes in the canvas file.
I use git and constantly seeing changes in canvas just from opening, which doesn’t make any sense.
