  • I know what this is, but it is taking time to write the code to resolve it.

    Explanation: LFGSS resizes large images but actually doesn't generate thumbnails today as that was a good way to also preload the images when you want to view them. This puts a strain on iOS devices which only reserve a very low amount of RAM for a page. When we increased the size of attachments people started taking photos and submitting them direct from their phone, and so they are larger. Meaning that a page with many attachments today may take a lot more memory than a page in the past. This causes an iOS tab to run out of memory, and then the process is killed, which triggers the browser to reload it.

    The fix: I need to actually generate thumbnail images that are much smaller, and only show the full size if clicked.
