Lately I've noticed that Phanpy really makes chromium burn a lot of CPU. That could be chromium's fault (don't get me started..), but I suspect it's because Phanpy is using (P)React, which is a whole lot of javascript. I've gone back to Elk for the time being, and it's night-and-day. Unfortunately Elk is definitely rougher around the edges, but it also uses much less CPU on my laptop.

@Andres4NY does it happen all the time or sometimes? 🤔

@cheeaun I've noticed it over the past 2-3 months, pretty much all the time. I haven't bothered debugging it at all because chromium is such a moving target right now.

Once I get chromium 153 out the door and buteo-syncfw packaged w/ Qt6, I'll take some time to dig into what's going on w/ phanpy on chromium (unless you see the same thing and beat me to it of course).
