Keep My Opt-Outs has been chewing up vast amounts of CPU on more recent dev-channel releases #7

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?

- Start Chrome with Keep My Opt-Outs enabled

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

- CPU use never drops to normal after Chrome starts.

- A Chrome helper process (sometimes 2?) is seen to be chewing up 30% to 60% of 
CPU or more

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

- Keep My Opt-Outs 1.0.14
- Chrome Version 24.0.1312.5 or perhaps earlier through to 25.0.1337.0 dev
- Mac OS X 10.6.8

Please provide any additional information below.

- I usually kill the helper process, then I see the "extension has crashed" 
balloon pop up, and I close that, and go on without.

Just adding my +1. Had to disable the extension completely, since it was 
causing Chrome to be unusable.

Same here, disabled. I guess that chalks up as mission acomplished for someone else.
