Hello, after the MTS update I feel like my computer is underperforming by A LOT.
I understand that newer technologies use to require a better hardware to keep up the performance, but overall I don't think this new version is optimized enough, that can even crash a 16gb RAM, i7 laptop.
Using the old version I could stay all day, and sometimes even more than 24 hours with it open searching/catching HITS, but now after 2 hours with the HIT Catcher and HIT Finder open, my computer feels like it's rendering some video in Adobe Premiere Pro, it becomes excessively laggy and unresponsive.
I just don't think something is right, or is probably allocating waaay more memory than it's intended for use in long periods of time.
Almost every day this crash happens, which isn't a common crash if you're only with like 5 tabs of Chrome opened: HIT Catcher, HIT Tracker, Facebook, Gmail and MTurk.
Other error:
I'm not even using Netflix/Youtube anymore on my laptop to prevent more performance issues, now I'm watching both from my iPhone and the "out of memory" error message keeps happening constantly.
Is there any way to make the new version of the extension more memory efficient like the older one, or a tutorial to browse through the settings to make it consume less memory ?
