Hello, I(GM) am having an issue with my sessions slowing down to a crawl if I open two maps at the same time. I'm updated to the latest version and so are all of my players, I'm running Pathfinder 2e Seasons of Ghosts. My computer is a 16" MacBook Pro 2019 with and intel chip, 16gb of Ram and running MacOs 26.

This problem is only happening recently but I'm wondering if it's an issue with my laptop not playing nice with the intel macs. My internet is not the issue, and it only comes up if I have two maps open at the same time, regardless if they're being shared or not

How big are the images? Do they follow the image guidelines? Developer Guide - Product Guidelines - Fantasy Grounds Customer Portal - Fantasy Grounds (https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/2037547009/Developer+Guide+-+Product+Guidelines)

Do they have lots of Line of Sight occluders on them? Do you have FX or lightning enabled? How may FXs & light sources? How many tokens on each image?

If you have a lot of these things, you may just have to have one image at a time, or limit those things to improve performance.

Other things you can do for performance are outlines here: Reducing GPU Usage - Fantasy Grounds Customer Portal - Fantasy Grounds (https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/1638006786/Reducing+GPU+Usage)

Welcome to the FG forums!

Do some testing without any extensions enabled - some extensions can impact performance.
