It's crazy we have hit a point where memory, CPU speed and disk speed isn't getting clapped because a Dev shipped logging at trace level instead of what used to the application being catastrophically slow so its immediately fixed in the next update.
Codex is one of the most infamous examples of slopware. Just having the window unhidden on my mac will cause it to use 100% of the GPU displaying the spinner message. THE SPINNER MESSAGE CAUSES 100% GPU USAGE ON AN MBP M5!! So any time you're waiting on the model (which is 90% of the time), your fans will be blasting (careful, don't use it on battery). The issue is on github and close to 6 months old. Probably since…
Well thank you for your service. I thought about trying out Codex after the disaster that is Claude Code. I'll be fine without either one on my machine

What are your thoughts on the SNR of the linked GitHub issue threads? Consider the volume of comments posted and the substance of each comment.
I read the first page and they were excellent. Each was clearly written by an experienced dev who knows how to substantiate their claims and propose an acceptable fix that could just be merged. Your comment, on the other hand, would be improved by including your own opinion on the matter.

Welcome to the world of tomorrow!
Vibe coding takes "move fast and break things" to a whole nother level.

Mindboggling. Or can't use Google's AI Studio in browser because it takes 100% CPU.
Need to write own app for everything???

This is actually such a classic blunder (shipping trace/debug logging on for everything), but funnily the impact is not in a normal way. It's crazy we have hit a point where memory, CPU speed and disk speed isn't getting clapped because a Dev shipped logging at trace level instead of what used to the application being catastrophically slow so its immediately fixed in the next update.

Not only Codex, but I can't leave ChatGPT app in macOS open for few hours, because it will consume 60 gigabytes of RAM over time and crashes all the apps. Mindboggling. Or can't use Google's AI Studio in browser because it takes 100% CPU. Need to write own app for everything???
