Extreme slowdown on page loading, potential memory leak?

[hugoattal]

I've been noticing extreme slowdown on page load with the devtools activated.

(I use the 7.7.7 version on Firefox, but it does the same thing on Chrome)

When I load the page, it works for 1-2 seconds, then it freezes for about 30-40s (I even get a warning if I want to stop the script), and after that it works again! I get this at each page load.

If I disable the extension, it works without any issue.

Here's a performance profiling with the extension activated. As you can see, the CPU is at 100% for a very good amount of time. Also, the memory has this sawtooth shape, which led me to believe it might be some kind of memory leak. The callstack indicates that the "traverse" function is called a lot of times.

For comparison, here's a performance profiling with the extension disabled.

I admit, I don't know how to reproduce easily, my project is fairly big and not open source... I don't expect you guys to be able to solve this without much input, I just want to warn you about this potential issue, maybe it rings a bell.

EDIT: It might have to do with iframe? This bug happens only on the page where I have one, and when I disable it, it's a bit quicker.

Can you provide a mini repo? Thanks

Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to provide a minimal repo... My project is fairly big and complex, and I'm having a hard time narrowing down the issue.

As stated, I don't expect you guys to be able to investigate this for now, considering I'm not providing a lot of information. I think it may have to do with iframe? I just wanted to report the issue in case someone else stumble upon this.

I'll try to narrow it down a bit more if it can help.

+1 on this since 7.7.7
