I've used Chrome/Chromium on both Windows and Linux, Firefox, Vivaldi, even Edge. This site kills 'em all, even with adblock.
You lot finding the same?
I mean the obvious answer is to not visit rt.com, but wow. No wonder we so easily lose control of RAM or battery usage.

why not
>using chrome
Faggot.
Because it's an extremely bloated site that brings web browsers to their knees?
Why should I care about stress testing my browser?
I have a 4790k and 16 GB of ram, so it's a literal non-issue.
with ublock it's fine
>chrome
lmao
I agree, comrade.
>literally not reading the list of browsers in the OP to just shitpost about Chrome
Enjoy your slowfox though.
Not really noticing it, cpu usage stays at 1% and memory won't exceed 500MB.
ublock and umatrix right here, can confirm
Not a problem when using Edge :^)
ublock annoys the shit out of me as it's a bit like noscript in how much it interrupts actual functionality.
However, just tried with ublock, page still saps 11% CPU, albeit RAM usage reduced to 250MB.
With a VP9 video playing in edge at the same time.
Am I meant to watch the video or something?
Nope
Beats me. Getting 15% on Opera here.
I mean, it's a 4 year old Thinkpad so if it's being compared to high end i7 desktops then of course the results won't be the same! But nothing has hammered it quite like this site - it even handles theverge.com which tended to put a strain on things.
Can't blame the browser or the OS, as both have been varied.
It's an Acer laptop.
>Beats me
Check out your ad blocker settings for once. And by ad blocker I obviously mean ublock origin.
>1.1-2% CPU
>323 MB Mem
15.4 MB here :^)
You think RT is bad? Try Daily Mail.

Hard mode: load all botnet as well
how is 10% CPU and 400 MiB stressful?
Without botnet it's actually quite clean, no CPU load at all and scrolling override bullshit.
Want a real browser stress test? Fucking Wikia. Without UBlock or similar, the amount of bloat on a single page is mind blowing. And heaven forbid you open 2 tabs.....
>And heaven forbid you open 2 tabs
Let me guess, a FF user? Wasn't e10 supposed to fix that shit?
Negligible CPU hit on that page, but then again with uBlock and most of the shit that page has on it not being able to get through probably has something to do with it.
Not using some kind of blocking plugin = you're fucked.
Using some kind of blocking plugin = everything is just better, period.
>it interrupts actual functionality.
but that is the point.
You stop EVERYTHING and only allow what you want as you need it.
My biggest gripe with ublock is stupid sites like ebay, aliexpress, dhgate that use dozens of domains for each part of the checkout process, you can't (easily, from the UI) allow *.aliexpress from *.aliexpress. I don't wanna write custom rules all the time.
Wikia is INSANE. Typical page load is about 6MB, hitting around 70 domains.
Time to upgrade that Pentium 4 OP.
I opened it and my CPU usage is at 3%. I'm even on a budget laptop with a shitty AMD APU.
