Hi Terry,
This mainly happens with sites that use a similar framework to the
Dorset Echo, (eg Daily Echo, etc)
Does the CPU maxing out occur if you visit the Daily Echo directly,
ending up at the same story which Google News mentioned?
No. But it didn't when I then opened it in a tab.
I'm pretty sure that the problems isn't entirely to do with Chromium.
Do you have any plugins, whatever Chromium calls them, which might be
blocking some JavaScript, etc? Perhaps what remains is not expecting
the resulting half-loaded page and spinning in a CPU and
memory-consuming loop.
I only have one Chromium Extension installed; the Jitsi one that allows
me to call a Meeting.
Run ‘dstat -tcdngmy’ in a sufficiently wide, visible terminal window and
see if that helps show whether the problem is CPU or paging.
I'll do that the next time I see the problem.
