Hello @vskavgaci ,

Thanks for the hint 🙂

This shows that the check in the speedkit is selected correctly. Reason for the blocking, are the reduced FPS in Energy Saver Mode. https://developer.chrome.com/blog/memory-and-energy-saver-mode/#energy-saver-mode

This would be another case for the SpeedkitLayer to tell the user that he is in Energy Saver Mode and actively decides if he wants to load the energy consuming scripts.

This issue also affects Nuxt 2. It seems like hydration never happens if the user has Energy Save mode turned on.
