Hi,

we starting to work on some bigger webpages with more elements and so on. I realized the App starts to slow down and there is a bigger delay when the Editor updates. Following things I observed

- Video in the background is an issue when it keeps playing. Would be nice to disabled that for the editor or at least not run in a loop the whole time

- When all colors are set to custom where every single field is defined will slow down the theme loading.

We’ve made some optimisatiins in today’s build that should help. If you have a project you can share with an example of the slow down you’re experiencing, that would be helpful 😊

Should be fixed in today’s build (if not, it’ll be the one after).
