 does the Killer Sudoku become "slow" over time?
A user reported that when solving a Killer Sudoku puzzle, the page becomes sluggish
after a few minutes. Reloading the page (temporarily) fixes it.

Do other people experience the same issue?

I solved today's easy killer this afternoon and have just finished solving yesterday's easy killer and the difficult killer from the day before yesterday. In neither case did I experience any lag or sluggishness.

Potentially (but not necessarily) relevant: My setup is Windows 7, Firefox, uBlock origin* and NoScript (with necessary exceptions). As an extra challenge, I avoided using "pencil" numbers when solving these particular puzzles.

Just solved today's medium killer using the same setup and "pencil" numbers and still couldn't replicate the problem reported by the other user. Maybe it was just a one-time anomaly [smile]

no problem of slowness for me but when I want to use the pencil to display all the possible combinations in the cell to solve anything puzzle, it doesn't works... [sad]

Bram,
I give you a lot of credit for solving KSs without using a pencil.

I use a pencil, and have not noticed a slow down.
