Performance

  1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this
    Figma is incredibly slow. It can take a minute or more to load. It’s not clear if it’s crashing and I should just refresh, or it might load at some future point.

  2. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)
    Sorry, these are all confidential to my company.
    I should add that I am a developer and do not control anything uploaded to Figma.

  3. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation
    (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc.
    Is Figma generally incredibly slow?

Is Figma generally incredibly slow?

Yes, lately there’s a lot of forum comments regarding Figma being very slow.

Thanks Apple, glad to know it’s not just me!

In general, some tips:

  • Try to keep your files lean,
  • Reduce image size, and reuse images when possible
  • Use components as much as you can

Hope that helps

Hi Apple – I am a developer and do not control any of the things you mentioned, since I never add content to Figma, so unfortunately those don’t help me at all.
