Lately, responses have been taking a really long time, both on my computer and my phone. Whenever it’s a longer reply, it often freezes or even crashes completely, showing a “Page Unresponsive” error. Just wondering if others are dealing with the same thing or if it’s just me.

Yes, it’s absolutely HORRIBLE!!! Why does it make claims or agree to promises that it cannot deliver???
I have been having the same issues. I don’t know how to fix it. I hope it’s something that they can improve because it’s very unreliable specially for something you pay for.
Yes the problem is that the way the browers has to store all of the DOM doman object models, it eats up tons of memory and highly ineffecient. They need to rewrite it to a vitualized approach with lazy loading and something similar to Twitter X processes.
I’m not holding my breath for a re-write – but it is a limiting factor for a Chat room…
I have been looking for a temporary USER solution… The delay get clearly visible and measurable if you call up the Browser Dev Tools ,and look a LCP after refreshing the page.
I am thinking one could run some form of IN Browser Filter, to filter out a lot of that NOT ALWAYS needed, fancy DOM formatting, being able to turn it on and off at will, so you can refresh with it on or off, and thus control the chat rendering size, and the lag when the page refreshes.
BTW: I find the ChatGPT APP delay even worse , and thats not nearly so easy for the User to temporarily “FIX” !!
Yes. Same here. Every device. Every browser.
For anything except the occasional, casual simple text request, this makes the OpenAI UI virtually unusable, for any extended, complex text communication.
The ChatGPT functionality is fine, its just the text chat browser / app implementation of the Interface that is an issue – the ANDROID app, does not seem to suffer from the same DOM issues.
Needs to be fixed by OpenAI ? ASAP …
