Performance
- Removed global sorting by
visitCountfromchrome.runtime.onInstalled - Large items
{"any_domain": {visitCount: visitCount, items: {"any_pathname": {...}, ...}}, ...}from the domain list have been changed to{"any_domain": visit_count, ...} - Specific domain items (by pathname) are now loaded only on request
- List of items for 3rd table has been removed from browser storage (now generated from domain list)
- Now each table gets the top 100 items first (saves most of the wasted time when opening a new tab)
- All items are now loaded & replace the top 100 only after first sorting, search, pagination, etc.
chrome.tabs.onUpdatedreplaced withchrome.history.onVisited- New history items are now stored separately (fixes freezes when opening new a page)
- Redeveloped CSS of table component (affects scrolling & animations)
- Fixed issue causing double request for localization files (saves ~20ms (on SSD) when opening a new tab)
- Favicons are now loaded only by domain name (fixes double loading & caching of the same favicon)
User Interface
- Upgraded Satus
- Added "Compact mode"
- Added drop-down tables with search queries
- Improved styles of drop-down tables

- Search adapted to the latest changes

September Alpha
A new way to get history data:
- OLD: getting big data on first chrome://newtab load -> getting missing data on next chrome://newtab loads
- NEW: getting big data when installing an extension -> getting 1 item when loading any page
- Improved performance of history parsing
- chrome://newtab no longer uses
chrome.history.search, onlychrome.storage.local.get(saves 1-7 sec on each load) - History items limit (when installing extension) increased to 999,999,999
- Data for tables 2 & 3 are no longer limited to 1000 items (previous algorithms did not allow working with a large number without long freezes)
- Added async big data search
- Added favicons (chrome://favicon/PAGE_URL)
- Other minor changes
