Prototypes Lagging Very Badly

Recently my project prototypes have started to lag incredibly and become unusable for presentations. The latest change I can think of is updating my table components into variants.

Granted I have very big projects, but they ran well previously and now even just trying to open an overlay on the very starting screen is impossible. This only started recently, within this week.

I cannot share any videos of this now due to confidentiality. If necessary I would need to blank out some elements. I was wondering if anyone else has the same experience.

Same problem.
Yesterday everything worked fine.
Today it’s lagging.
Simple prototypes work well, but the more complex are lagging badly.

I’ve also experienced severe lag when running usability testing sessions. Is there a technical issue on figma’s side? I thought it was my participants internet connection.

Anyone heard anything on this? I have a very important presentation tomorrow and it’s too slow to work right now.

Alright if you refresh now, do the lagging problems go away?

Yep, that did it for me.

Thanks so much!
