Is this on the default tab? Are you doing any clicking around? Any specific features you’re using?

I wondered what the sudden high CPU usage by chrome was. Possible this?
Usually it happens after I’m compulsively changing my avatar to test every possible hat combo for a certain theme, so about 50+ changes to my avatar in total.
I do not. I generally watch extension activity and disable the ones that might be intensive if I don’t need to use them.

A bit of a bump / followup to this. I’m having the issue again.
This time, I paid attention to what may be doing it, and it may be the fact that I generally open catalog items and get 3-4 tabs of items in the 3D view, even though my avatar may not be 3D.
In this case, I think it may be a good fix to pause the 3D view when the tab is unfocused.
Can’t confirm, and the laptop I tested that on is a quad core Celeron N3150 at ~600 MHz
That’s why I’m thinking it’s the other tabs I have of various avatar items. I have studio open at the same time usually (to look at my avatar in a game environment) but I wouldn’t think that’d bar chrome.
A late followup to this issue, because I’m still noticing it. I’ve found out that it’s likely related to having a lot of items on screen.
I have QUITE a few Hat accessories, and I see the CPU spike when I scroll down to the bottom. Can anyone validate this for me?
I can confirm that the Avatar page gets an insane CPU spike when using 3D model rendering, although that may just be my crappy old CPU being over a decade old.

I am having a issue with the avatar page aswell. After a few seconds of having it open Google Chrome has a major spike in CPU usage. I’ve only had this issue for the past couple months. Before that it was completely fine. I’ve disabled all extensions hoping that would help but it had no effect.

I fixed my issue by reenabling hardware acceleration on Google Chrome. Hope this helps others.

I can confirm that this has happened in the past to me as well.
Is this the only solution? I’d rather not have it enabled

That seems to be the only solution as of now.

This issue seems to be related to the Google Chrome browser and in your screen shot you’re using Microsoft Edge.
It’s Chromium based. I got sick of Google and moved to Firefox though, still no issues.

It’s kinda annoying since I run various VMware virtual machines, and also, Roblox Studio runs Lua VMs, which I believe uses hardware acceleration as well, although I don’t know exactly how it works.
Off topic, but I have a feeling this is going to happen a lot more soon.

same happens on google tried cleaning cache and cookies and still the same i dont know why
Happening when enabling 3D and 2D views, but somehow it stopped both on the avatar page and profile page just by enabling hardware acceleration on Google Chrome settings.
