Why does my Electron app lag after building?
I have an electron app that works perfectly well when I run it with "npm start". This is my start script:
electron .
The problem for me is that when I build the program with electron-packager, it behaves abnormally and lags. My build script is below:
electron-packager . --overwrite --platform=darwin --arch=x64 --prune=true --out=
release-builds
I'm not really sure what's causing the slow behavior in my app. Additionally my app uses WebGL, so I was unable to use the "disableHardwareAcceleration()" command. I'm just confused in general as to why my app functions normally with "npm start", but then lags when I build it into an actual application.
Thank you for any help in advance!

This could be caused by any of your dependencies. It might be worth running an electron debug on your build to see what is causing the lag. A similar thing happened to me when using RXDB in production environment. I only found this out by running a debug.
