Constant CPU usage

[soegaard]

I often borrow a book. Open it in the reader. Put it in full screen. Then I might switch attention to something else and switch back to other browser pages. The problem is that the bookreader uses cpu while not shown on screen.

I expected the cpu usage to be 0% when not in use - but the cpu usage is constantly 3%.

I am using an Chrome browser on an Intel Mac.
