Chrome dev tool also starts to lock up if you reload while on a breakpoint. The dev tool was the main reason I started using Chrome. Really sad to see it degrade.

That’s what’s happening? Oh man, that really started to be prevalent for me in the last week or two. Very frustrating.

That's funny. Because it used to have a related/sort of opposite problem:

If you were on a breakpoint and you reloaded the page, the code execution was resumed. Didn't realize it did that until I saw network traffic that was generated by code after the breakpoint.

I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only person this is happening to. I had to switch to Firefox for debugging as Chrome would lock up completely on breakpoints.

Something I noticed recently is that some CSS animations stutter heavily when Chromium dev tools are open. Doesn't happen on Firefox nor Safari.

Wonder if Firefox works better on your projects, as a lot of work went into debugging quality and performance. Have you tried it out lately?
