Hey, this seems specific to the new On3 forums / site but when surfing the site, I'm sometimes getting a spinning icon, my PC's fan goes into hyperdrive, and if I don't close the current tab and let it run it's course, Chrome will crash. It looks like something on this site is causing my CPU usage to skyrocket intermittently. If I close the tab and navigate back to where I was, it's fine, but happens again at a random time later.

Are you on Windows or Mac?

Do you know how to find what version of Chrome are you using? If not I can paste you instructions.

FYI, this hasn't happened since I made this post. There was some weirdness I think when IC still existed on 247 and this site was a placeholder. Now that IC is fully integrated, I haven't seen the issue.

Or maybe my chrome updated in the middle of the night without me knowing and solved the issue? Idk.

Yes, that is the most up to date version of Chrome - and has been working for me on my Macbook. I was going to have a friend with Windows test it, but seems like that is not needed. Thanks for the update!
