Firefox extension utilizes lot of CPU

Open wslyvh opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Every time I open up or try to do any action using the browser extension my CPUs go crazy. I can actually hear them spin up. % usage jumps to ~!5%. The extension itself becomes really slow. When I initially open it, it's basically unusable, so I wait 2-3 seconds to "cool down" to around 7-8% CPU usage, before clicking or performing any next action.

I've had this issue since the launch of the extension (Oct '23) and disabled it immediately again after installing. There's some DM history on twitter (@wslyvh).

I recently formatted and did a clean install of OS + Browser + extensions, so wanted to give it another try but still experiencing the same issues.

Laptop: System76 Lemur Pro (11th gen, i7, 40GB ram) OS: Pop_OS 22.04 Firefox version: 122.0 Rainbow extension version: 1.3.62
