Poor performance

While my project runs in Firefox, I see that in Activity Monitor, FirefoxCP Web Content is hovering around 30% of CPU, while Firefox hovers around 8%. In Chrome, I noticed similar results.

When I began the project, my intention was to make a banner of a single repeating sprite which reacted slightly to some windy noise and mouse over / clicks. Nothing fancy. Something that could simply load quickly and offer basic interaction for fun. Unfortunately, 30% of the processor is too much for a simple banner.

I stripped all OnUpdate functionality, and found that the performance increased slightly but not significantly. I noticed that the DungeonZ project runs at about 10%. This project is similar because it simply uses a bunch of sprites. DungonZ uses the tile system, mine is just instantiated on a loop the first frame.

My project contains a 100x100 image and a 32x32 image. The 32x32 image is repeated across the scene. I have commented all functionality and I have removed all modules except for Core2D, Image2D, Sprite2D, and Tweens.

I would like to understand how to make Tiny Unity projects performant. Any ideas?

EDIT:
This seems to be directly related to the number of Entities generated in the first frame. I have it coded so that I can click on them to destroy them, and I can see a dramatic change as they are destroyed. With no entities left in my scene, I get about 10% instead of 30%;

This leads to the question :
Is it better to copy a child of an entity instead of creating lots of Entities? I'm going to try that next.
Second question : would it be faster to create them in a tile grid?

 

Hi Ray,
I gave this a go. It still seems to be running at around 25% when ran from the TinyUnity Export folder. I truly appreciate you looking into this.

I've been looking for a way to 1) instantiate an entity 2) copy that entity's child instead of the whole Entity Group within the loop. I don't know if it would help but do you have any insight into it?

Edit :
I have 'Play Mode' turned off, so the browser should not be interacting with a webserver. Do I understand that correctly?

Edit :
This is how I'm attempting to instantiate the child of the entity group.
let instance = ut.EntityGroup.instantiate(this.world, "game.Card")[0];
let a = this.world.instantiateEntity(instance[1]);

Thanks again.
CPU usage here is critical because it is intended to be a lightweight header, and I intend to apply some perlin noise and the like eventually to make it interesting. I don't want it to start off heavy since it really isn't the focal point of the site. My intentions long term is to make small games that reside in the sides of websites, and I'd like them to be as light as possible.

I'm going to go ahead and try to export and send the project over to you over DM. I suspect that sending only the sub folder for the game would be appropriate?

 

I have this error on console chrome;
c:/users/Abdul/Documents/tiny/Runtime/modules/core2d/src/DisplayListSystem.cpp,299,
My question is about the name of user "Abdul" that name is not my name.
The same name is appear on @Streamfall

 

That name is of one of the devs. He apparently put his own file system path in the error hardcoded. Nothing to worry there, it's normal.

 

@Rupture13 thank you very much
