<p><a href="https://www.omnigroup.com/omnigraffle/">OmniGraffle 7.11 for Mac</a> is a very important update — it includes significant performance improvements. There’s no silver bullet for making an app faster: there is only figuring out which things are slow, figuring out how to speed those things up, figuring out how to measure progress — and then making sure no new bugs were added. It’s a lot of work!</p>
<p>In this special episode we have two separate interviews. The first is with OmniGraffle engineers Rey Worthington and Shannon Hughes. The second is with Ken Case, CEO; Tim Wood, CTO; and Dan Walker, OmniGraffle PM. These interviews were recorded while the work was in progress but pretty far along.</p>
<p>We talk about how we found the slowdowns, how we fixed them, and how we wrote tests to make sure we <em>know</em> we’re making OmniGraffle faster.</p>
