Performance is pretty slow

[rulkens]

Hi all, I'm using the map extensively and with all the camps now filled in, the loading of data every time has come pretty much to a halt. Looking at performance, the culprit is the _getTotalAreaOfOverlappingEntities function. I could have a look at optimizing this, if I know what branch is currently deployed. Can someone tell me?

Yes it's problematic. It would be great if you could have a look at it.
Next year we'll probably rethink this bit. Maybe do the calculation on the backend while saving and store the validated result. Or do the calculation in a thread.

The main branch is the one that we have deployed.

Would you like to join the placement team next year?

[rulkens]

Yes, I'd love to join next year! I think it indeed makes sense to do the calculation on the server and cache it, and serve the calculated values. If I had a little more time then I could do it :)
