BBMap Causing Browser to Stall

Post by stu18 »

Another issue in 2026R1.5. In BBMap, then I first load the page, it appears to cause the web browser to stall. A browser like Firefox would also show a message that the script is slowing the browser down and offers an option to stop it.
If I load the page and quickly select the Limit To download menu options and click on Update, it would load fine.

It seems like the BBMap is trying to load all of the hosts, so was wondering if there is a workaround to tell the page not to load any host and let the user select the Limit To options without stalling/crashing the web browsers.

Thanks!

There is an option in Admin -> System Config -> Performance Settings -> Auto-Running that turns off auto-loading on page load that you can use in the meantime.
