[SOLVED] (2.9.5.1) chess24.com

Post by RichardFreeman »

Hi,

Problem: when playing a chess game on chess24.com, each move I make takes a long time to be sent to the server.

Steps to reproduce:
- select "play against computer" on https://chess24.com/en/play/chess (no registration required)
- make moves on chess board (you can pre-move before AI has responded)
- time it took for you to make the move is displayed in the chat on the right

Average time to make a pre-move with...
... all add-ons disabled: 300 - 400ms
... only NoScript disabled: ~600ms
... all enabled (all scripts on chess24.com enabled): >1000ms

In chess games with little time on the clock, it is important to be able to make moves quickly.

Is it possible to reduce the amount of time consumed by NoScript on each move?

Version:
- NoScript 2.9.5.1
- Firefox ESR 45.5.0

Try NoScript latest development build.

If that doesn't help, when this issue occurs do you see anything related in the Browser Console? (Ctrl-Shift-J)
(if you don't know what's related, turn off CSS warnings and post everything else you see)
