Turns out that nw.js 0.42.0 crashes a lot on newer macOS versions, so we need to upgrade to a later version. As Ico figured out a while ago, the performance issues in later versions are due to the NW2 upgrade in 0.42.4 (https://nwjs.io/blog/nw2-mode/). This can be disabled which gets JS execution performance back up to where it was in older versions. 0.55.0 is the last version which doesn't have the nwworkingdir bug on Linux which causes file dialogs to open in the wrong locations. It also seems to work just as well (or at least not any worse) than 0.67.x on Mac and Windows. The only downside is that 0.55.0 still has the dark mode bug on Linux (https://github.com/agraef/purr-data/issues/42); Mac and Windows seem to be fine. But this is a cosmetic issue which can be worked around by adjusting the desktop theme, while the nwworkingdir bug breaks important functionality and has no known work-around. So I think that fixing the latter at the cost of breaking dark mode ...
