Outline: Performance issues on getoutline.com
Hello!
First of all, I express my gratitude for the development of such a cool product!
I have performance issues. The situation is the same both on my own server and on getoutline.com
For reasons that are not entirely clear to me, this document has been loading for a very long time. The page may freeze for several minutes, and the browser says: “The web page slows down your browser.”!
At first, I decided that this was due to the weight of the document (38 KB), but the test document weighing 66 KB loads instantly.
The problem is probably Markdown specific markup.
I plan to write a lot of documents with similar markup. Such performance can be a problem =-(

Hi @ADWadmin – yes I believe it's all of the code blocks in the document, they are expensive to process as each character is considered individually to see how it should be color/highlighted.
There is currently a big rewrite of the editor underway that addresses this though, using your expensive test document from above it renders in under 100ms in the new editor 👏
