AI Studio + 2.0-flash-exp freezes browser

I tried using the latest Gemini 2.0 Flash (Experimental) model with AI Studio. However, selecting the model from the dropdown menu or accessing AI Studio via /new_chat?model=gemini-2.0-flash-exp causes the browser to become unresponsive. I waited for about 10 minutes, but it remained frozen.

Process Explorer shows that a renderer process is consuming CPU. Additionally, the “Performance” tab in the browser inspector fails to gather data once the browser freezes.

All other models work normally.

I have tested this on multiple browsers and devices, including:

  • Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and Edge on Windows
  • Safari on macOS & iOS

I also tried using incognito mode and clearing the cache, but the issue persists.

Is there any further troubleshooting I can try?
