Hello
I have been facing performance issues when working on large and complex BPMN diagrams in the Camunda Modeler (desktop version). Specifically; as the diagram grows with additional elements and connectors, the application starts to lag significantly, making tasks like dragging elements, zooming, or even selecting tasks quite slow.
This happens despite running the Modeler on a high-performance machine with plenty of RAM and CPU resources.
Is there a recommended approach to optimize performance for such large diagrams? Would breaking the diagram into smaller sub-processes improve usability, and if so, how can this be done without disrupting the overall workflow design?
I have checked Slow Rendering for big diagrams - Modeler - bpmn.io Forum java guide for reference .
I’m also curious if the web version of Camunda Modeler offers better handling for such cases or if there are plans to improve the desktop application’s performance for large-scale BPMN files. Any tips or insights would be appreciated!
Thank you !
