3DPrinting
3DPrinting is a place where makers of all skill levels and walks of life can learn about and discuss 3D printing and development of 3D printed parts and devices.
The r/functionalprint community is now located at: or !functionalprint@fedia.io
There are CAD communities available at: !cad@lemmy.world or !freecad@lemmy.ml

Thats also not the most intensive part. Managing geometries and compute is the most intensive part and that is done server side.
It's still an intensive part though.
Its really not that intensive, I barely break 15% CPU utilization and 25% RAM utilization on my laptop wheen using via browser to dockerized FreeCad on the server, compared to 100% CPU and 45% RAM when running FreeCad directly on the laptop.
I didn't realize it was using a remote-desktop setup. Still 2-D rendering performance could be an issue in the browser depending on whether it's using accelerated graphics or not.
There are performance metrics other than CPU/memory usage. Like network latency, disk i/o, and bandwidth. UI performance on remote desktops tends to suffer from latency even with fast machines on local networks. The "proxmox console" for VMs I run in browser is a remote desktop and it performs... well enough for a server but I wouldn't want to do anything significant in it. And that's just presenting a desktop.
You haven't described the nature of your 'poor performance' well though. Is it display latency like I'm describing or things like loading projects or creating STL files that is slow?
It's gigabit WiFi, latency to server is something like 5ms, and disk i/o and bandwidth barely even register above 1% on my laptop...the bottleneck is not network or the laptop.
Okay - then everything is working fine. You've ruled out all of your options.
