What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open androidpolice.com in Chrome for Android on Nexus 5 and or Android One

I was *just* complaining to Joshua (our designer/developer) about the same 
thing. Something is up, and we are making it a priority to figure out wtf is 
going on.

Thanks! I thought you guys forgot to test it out on mobile. Looking forward for 
this, I won't make any more noise here. :D

Hi Guys,

I noticed everytime I open up androidpolice.com, Chrome RAM usage increases 
significantly like 300-600MB in the cached processed stats. Is this normal?

I tested it out by opening only one tab on facebook.com and then theverge.com, 
each tab not even touch 150MB.

I'm on Nexus 5 running stock Android 5.1. The screenshots were taken using 
Chrome Beta v42, but it's almost the same RAM usage on Chrome Stable v41.

Is it possible that it's related to

It could be. :)

I also tested on Firefox 36 with AdBlockPlus addon and found the RAM usage was 
also high around 300MB where only one tab opened which was androidpolice.com. 
Eventhough the ads are blocked, the scrolling performance still lagging. 
Perhaps AdBlockPlus addon only hid it not blocked.

Just wondering if there are any updates on this problem? Mobile site is now 
unusable for me now.

There is no update at this time, other than expecting the resolution to that 
Chromium ticket as well as waiting for this

I concur

This new site is a pain, compared to the líder one.

Sluggish experience

I agree that the new responsive site on mobile loads very slowly. It took close 
to 30 seconds to load the home page. I'm connected to WiFi on my Verizon Moto X 
running Android 4.4.4.

The biggest problem I can see is that the "News At A Glance" section is all 
white until the very end of the load. Also, I have a feeling that all of the 
social share/tweet/like counts or some other plugins are loading more slowly on 
mobile.

The new NaaG experience is almost here. It's the first major issue we're 
resolving. It'll be worth the wait!
