Does Figma Slow Down After Long Sessions with Multiple Tabs?

Hi ​@nguyện dung ,

I understand you’re experiencing some performance issues after long work sessions with around 20 tabs open.

I haven’t noticed this kind of slowdown myself, but if you’re still seeing the issue, you can try the following quick fixes:

• Close any Figma tabs you’re not actively using.

  • Browser: Force-quit your browser and reopen Figma in a new window.

  • Desktop app: Force-quit and restart the Figma desktop app.

If the issue persists and you’d like us to investigate further, could you please share a few more details?

• Are you encountering this issue on the browser version, the desktop app, or both?

• If you’re using a browser, are all 20 tabs Figma tabs?

• Roughly how long are your “long sessions”?

• Please describe what specific actions feel slower than usual.

• If possible, could you share a short screen recording that includes the full Figma screen when the issue occurs? This will help our team better understand what you’re experiencing.

Alternatively, you can also report this directly to our Support team using this secure link: Submit a request

In the meantime, here are a few troubleshooting guides that might help:

• Reduce memory usage in files

• My files are not opening

• Image loading and performance

Thanks,
