> Single tab of the front page of reddit

Not surprising, considering the (new) reddit website has the most bloated, sluggish UI I've ever used. And the only change they made recently made it worse as it added autoplaying livestreams.

Old Reddit Redirect add on is a requirement for me to browse reddit these days. I imagine they'll turn it off some day and hopefully they will Digg their own grave ;)

Yeah, I may have been purposefully putting my finger on the scale a bit.

google.com was bouncing around 1 and 3%. Firefox becomes unusable for me to do webdev on with multiple tabs if each tab is doing 5%+ each.
