    How to Enable or Disable Google Chrome Background Tab Throttling in Windows


    The stable channel of Google Chrome 57 for desktop ships with the background tab throttling power optimization feature.

    Announced from the Chromium Blog:

    *note Budget-based background timer throttling

    It operates as follows:
    • Each background tab has a time budget (in seconds) for running timers in the background.
    • A page is subjected to time budget limitations after 10 seconds in the background.
    • A timer task is allowed to run only when the time budget is non-negative.
    • After a timer has executed, its run time is subtracted from the budget.
    • The budget continuously regenerates with time (currently set to a rate of 0.01 seconds per second). Note that this budget regeneration rate can be tweaked as Chrome collects more data about throttling behavior.
    There are a number of automatic exemptions from this throttling:
    • Applications playing audio are considered foreground and aren’t throttled.
    • Applications with real-time connections (WebSockets and WebRTC), to avoid closing these connections by timeout. The run-timers-once-a-second rule is still applied in these cases.
    Note that this mechanism uses wall time, not CPU time. Its a good approximation of CPU time and penalises blocking the main thread for a long time.

    Finally, remember that if you are using long tasks in the background, your application can be throttled for a very long period of time (up to 100 times the duration of your task). Split your work in to chunks of 50ms or less per the performance guidelines and use the visibilityChange listener to avoid doing unnecessary work in background.

    This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable background tab throttling in Google Chrome for your account in Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10.



    Here's How:

    1. Open Google Chrome.

    2. Copy and paste the link below into the address bar of Chrome, and press Enter.
    *Arrow chrome://flags/#expensive-background-timer-throttling
    3. Select Default, Enabled, or Disabled under the Throttle expensive background timers setting for what you want. (see screenshot below)

    That's it,

    problem uninstalling google chrome

    Hi,

    Since you already uninstalled Google Chrome using the Programs and Features, Google notifications may still be running in the background processes. We suggest that you follow these steps on how to end the Google Chrome process:

    • On your keyboard, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
    • Select Task Manager.
    • Under Processes, locate Google Notifications or Google Chrome.
    • Right click on them and select End Task.
    • Double check under Programs and Features if Google Chrome is completely gone.

    Let us know if these steps worked.
