Trello web app uses excessive memory and slows down multi-app setups
Trello consumes significant RAM when running alongside other applications, causing system slowdowns that force users to close the app. This is particularly problematic for users on lower-spec hardware or with memory-intensive workflows. The issue is a performance regression rather than a feature gap.
