This updates livesplit-core which brings a variety of performance improvements: - The Layout State is now being reused and thus most frames don't require any heap allocations anymore. However we still serialize everything over into a JSON string for now, which puts a lot of garbage on the JS heap. https://github.com/LiveSplit/livesplit-core/pull/334 - The frequent performance.now() calls we do, first lookup up the window and performance object every time. This tripled the amount of calls we do over into JavaScript, with each call into JavaScript being quite expensive in Chrome. https://github.com/LiveSplit/livesplit-core/pull/335 - By introducing a timer snapshot mechanism we further reduce the calls to performance.now() to a single time. https://github.com/LiveSplit/livesplit-core/pull/339 - Rust 1.44 regressed the performance of 128-bit integer multiplications by accident. Those are used for hashing the comparisons when looking up the times for a comparison, which is something we do very frequently. We however don't have many comparisons, so a simple Vec that we loop through is a bit faster, even in native code, and quite a bit faster in the web, because of the Rust 1.44 regression. https://github.com/LiveSplit/livesplit-core/pull/338 - We delay registering the Gamepad Hook Interval until the first gamepad button is registered. Most people won't use a gamepad, so the interval just waits cpu time for no reason. https://github.com/LiveSplit/livesplit-core/pull/340
LiveSplit One
LiveSplit One is a version of LiveSplit that uses the multiplatform livesplit-core library and web technologies like React to create a new LiveSplit experience that works on a lot of different platforms.
The web version of LiveSplit One is available here.
Build Instructions
In order to build LiveSplit One, you need to install npm and the Rust compiler. Make sure to recursively clone the repository so that all git submodules are cloned as well:
git clone --recursive
Once you have cloned the repository and set up both npm and the Rust compiler, you need to install the WebAssembly target:
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
You also need to build wasm-bindgen:
cargo install wasm-bindgen-cli
You need to set up some npm modules before compiling the project:
npm install
You are now ready to build livesplit-core, which powers LiveSplit One:
npm run build:core
Now you can build and host LiveSplit One:
npm run start
A browser tab with LiveSplit One should now open. Alternatively, you can use npm run serve to just host it without opening a browser tab.
