Less 1.3.3, Watch Mode Hogging A Lot Of Cpu In Espresso Editor

I was using an older version of less (1.2.1) by accident and when I updated the .js to the most recent version (1.3.3) it seems that Espresso, my html/css editor, now takes 40% cpu

Solution 1:

I think it is better to precompile first and then make the site read the already-compiled .css instead.

You can use Koala app for precompiling the less file or you can use grunt too, and get rid of the less.js.
