Hi @JagTh,
Thanks for reporting this!
I understand how frustrating high CPU usage can be, especially when it affects your device's performance and temperature. We'd like to help you get to the bottom of this issue and solve it once and for all.
To better diagnose what's happening, could you provide some additional information?
Details That Would Help
- Which specific pages or sites are you visiting when you notice the high CPU usage?
- How many tabs do you typically have open?
- Are there any extensions installed? If so, which ones?
- Does this happen immediately upon launching the browser or after using it for a while?
- Activity Monitor details: Could you check Activity Monitor and let us know whether it's the main browser process or a specific helper process consuming the CPU?
- Have you tried Safari on the same device, and how does it behave with a similar setup?
Quick Things to Try
- Test in a clean profile - this can help determine if extensions or any settings are contributing to the issue
- Check for extension conflicts - try disabling extensions one by one to see if any particular one is causing problems
- Clear cache and browsing data - sometimes accumulated data can impact performance
- Check for background processes - some websites run resource-intensive scripts even when not actively in use
We take performance seriously, so we genuinely appreciate you taking the time to report it.
Looking forward to hearing back with those details so we can help resolve this!
