Site Extremely Unresponsive

So an update ... I cleared my browser history for this site and that seems to have fixed whatever was going on. Guess I should have tried that before posting but maybe if someone else is having this issue also then this will help. Hopefully that was all it takes.

yeah, cleaning browser history sometimes does magic, glad it works again for you . :)

Been having this same issue about a month now. Chrome on Windows 10. Gives a lot of messages (in my language) about: "Tab using a lot of resources, and slows the browser". Gives options to "fix" and which just makes it inactive, and results problem appearing again when I make tab active. Option "Close tab" does just that. Problem again, when I enter tvmaze.

Clearing history doesn't fix problem for me.

tagging @david  for this :)

Just as an addendum my problem on MAC OS 26 has't gone away. Every few days I need to clear history to make the site useable again. I would say there is a massive memory leak in the site somewhere. Just a guess but that is all I can think of that would make resources extremely sluggish over time that a clear history would fix. I guess it is with this site because I don't see this on any other site I visit regularly.

But the question is why does it only affect a few users and not everyone? We have to wait till @david looks into it.

I came here specifically looking to see if this was a known issue and if there was a fix. The problem for me was 100% the ads. An adblocker solves it 100% but that's not good for the site and not my preferred solution. I'd rather the site looked into what the ad service, or specific ads are doing that is killing the site performance and try to fix that instead.

That aligns with my suspicion. 

Thanks for the feedback, we're looking into this.

Can you check again and tell me if there are any issues now?

Unfortunately I can't.  I have recently become a premium user and have not had any issues since I did that. Hopefully one of the others who is having this issue can reply  for you.
