I have a setup where I embed web videos into Obsidian notes using <iframe>
tags. Specifically, I have 1,000 notes, each containing an embedded video via an <iframe>
. I’m seeking clarification on the following points:
- Resource Consumption Without Opening Notes: If I don’t open any of these notes after launching Obsidian, will the application still consume significant system resources due to these embedded iframes? Some AI responses suggest that Obsidian might pre-process such notes upon startup, leading to resource usage even without opening them.
- Resource Consumption After Closing Notes: If I open a note containing an iframe and then close it, does Obsidian continue to consume resources related to that iframe in the background?
- Resource Consumption from Previewing Notes: If I preview a note with an iframe using Obsidian’s backlink or hover preview features and then close the preview, does the iframe continue to consume resources?
Understanding how Obsidian handles embedded iframes in these scenarios is crucial for optimizing performance. Any insights or official documentation references would be greatly appreciated.
