Comment on Buggy animation in Atlassian Bitbucket is wasting half a CPU core at all times

Comments

Random idea for a future browser:

o Give me flamegraphs of all the computing resources a given web page is using; CPU, processes, threads, fibers, specific methods/procedures/functions inside of the Browser... also, be able to selectively disable and keep disabled, on a granular level (by web page/URL) things that use resources beyond a certain amount, for example, in the article's case, a buggy animation -- but more generically any resource or browser process or sub-process that is taking too much CPU time and/or other computing resources (RAM, I/O, Network, GPU etc.)...

(Yes, including those "power user" features could lead to the selective reduction of functionality for some web pages -- but the user should always be able to determine exactly what they want and what they don't want from any given web page...)
