Issue with browser slowing down while using MATLAB answers

While writing/editing answers on the forum, I've been having issues where the tab in my google chrome browser that's in use becomes unresponsive. At first, the text starts appearing more sluggishly as I type, and not long after, I can barely edit the answer or even copy/paste what I've written from the webpage. It's happened to me more than a few times.

So I'm wondering if anyone else been experiencing this issue or has any ideas as to what might be the cause?

I'm using:

Google chrome Version 84.0.4147.89 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Inspiron 15 7000 Gaming Laptop

I use Firefox, and have not noticed anything similar to what you’re describing.

I experienced something similar once few days ago on Opera. Sometimes you'll encounter bugs while typing in reply window, if you can reproduce it, it's good to describe and report it to the staff.

Hi Turlough

On which OS you are facing this issue ? and whats the memory(RAM) size?

Are you able to see any browser's console errors?

To get console errors on chrome press Command+Option+J(Mac) or Control+Shift+J(Windows,Linux)

(or)

Navigate to More tools --> Developers Tools from Chrome menu and click console tab.

I tried simulating different scenarios on Windows/Chrome but I could not reproduce this issue.But I have brought this issue to the notice of our developers. They will investigate the matter further."
