After updating 2 weeks ago, chrome began to slow down terribly. Half of the input fields cannot be focused, some sites become completely unresponsive (the page scrolls, but nothing is clicked). What is it? How to fix it?
Curiously, I did not notice any problems on any Google infrastructure site.

I am writing here because I could not google anything, but one comrade has the same parsley.

Go to the chrome://plugins/ tab and disable Google's flash (pepflashplayer) - this is his fault.

Does it slow down in incognito mode as well?

It slows me down mainly on pages with flash. Sometimes the whole window freezes because of some tab where there is a flash.

Such things, for some time my chromium was insanely slowing down, devouring 100% of the processor (it was about 4 months ago, the archlinux distribution kit). I didn’t understand what the problem was, there were no such problems with google-chrome.

I wrote a week ago about a similar problem. In Chromium, the same thing happens, and sometimes it just freezes completely.

Chrome 20 had another epic bug - the webcam turned on by itself when scrolling through pages and flash - and at these moments everything slowed down a lot. At 21, it seems like they fixed it.
