Steps to reproduce:
Running https://discord.com/app, typing in the message box is clearly lagging behind. It is worse in some channels than others and I'm not sure what the pattern is. This is a regression in 0.99.117, though I'm not sure what version I was previously on. Turning on compatibility mode does not help.

I realize this is a pretty sparse bug report , so let me know if there's something I can specifically do to provide more information. I did notice very high CPU usage while typing (~50%, whereas typing on orionfeedback.com is ~5%), and the sample shows a lot of time in WebCore, so maybe it's a WebKit bug?

    Afraid so, though it seems a little better in some channels and not others. New sample:

      jrose Please also provide video and indicate if you tried compatibiliy mode.

        Compatibility mode does not help. I'm afraid the video isn't very elucidating either, because it's hard to discern the extra milliseconds of delay that makes it feel like lag.

          i have this exact issue too

          MBP i5 2020 (13inch)

          notice how i input random keys on the keyboard, then stop completely, but the text on discord's chat box is still appearing even though i typed it a few seconds ago and then this issue doesn't happen on the search bar so like what

          also tried compatibility mode (not in the video) but it didn't work either; typing lag was still there

          i cant upload the video directly because it said "uploading these kinds of videos is not allowed" so that's why i uploaded it to youtube instead

            No one is typing
