AI Studio is CPU-hungry

While I am using AI Studio, I often have to wait for it to finish a task, so I do other things while waiting. But the thing I’ve noticed is that if I tell Gemini to do a long task and then try to view a YouTube video in a separate browser page (same browser: Chrome) but this is near-impossible as AI Studio claims a lot of CPU from the browser processes, thus my video keeps stuttering while I watch. That’s really annoying.
But watching YouTube videos in a different browser, watching NetFlix or doing other things still works fine. My ten cores have no problem with that. (The 64 GB of RAM and 4 TB of disk storage are also more than enough. And the Gigabit network should also be more than enough.)


The screenshot tells how CPU-hungry AI Studio is. As a result, all other browser pages have to suffer…
This is part a problem of Google Chrome, as it could use more of my processors. Chrome is at 10% CPU usage, which makes sense as it only uses one CPU for all the pages, apparently.
Should we tell the Chrome developers to improve this, or should AI Studio be improved instead? :slight_smile:
