● My GOG Galaxy Launcher 2.0 is lagging ●
×
● I have a decent computer to play all my classic games; I don't care if it's a gaming ● computer or a computer with a jet engine. xD
×
● I don't know why my GOG launcher is lagging and my computer is freezing so much.
×
● I even have 8 GB of RAM in my computer, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?
×
Do I need to upgrade it to 16 gigabytes? or upgrade my graphics card (GT 710)?
×
● Q: do I need to use Linux ?
● so ? Windows or Linux?
~i heard linux lacks of gog games compatibility?

● Thank you ●

It's probably just Electron being a pile of junk; it's the Unity of WebApps. Github used to have the Atom editor which had similarly rotten performance compared to peers.

If GOG Galaxy was running in a native toolkit, it'd perform better. Unfortunately, it behooves them to have a poorly built web sandbox instead.

If it's a hardware limitation, then you have to diagnose it yourself. Somewhere has to be a bottleneck.
What's your CPU / RAM / GPU usage while running Galaxy? Anything maxing out?
Slow as molasses in January at The Arctic Circle. An auditor might describe it as sunk costs, and write it off. ;--))
