The forum is maxing out everyone's CPU

For some reason the forums are maxing out the CPU on my Google Pixel 7 smartphone and Windows 11 Intel i7-8700K desktop.

In Windows Task Manager one of the CPU cores is maxed out at 100% usage while browsing the forums. All the forum pages are slow and laggy due to the maxed out CPU.

It seems like there's a JavaScript bug causing everyone's CPU to max out.

This is happening with the latest version of Google Chrome Web Browser on Windows 11 and Android 16.

    You are quick, the fix went live about 12 hours ago!

    Great to hear you can confirm from your end.

    I'm happy to report the forum is no longer maxing out the CPU in Chrome. Pages are loading up fast and everything is responsive again!

    Microsoft Edge does indeed work better than Chrome on the EA Forums. I'll stick with Edge until the Chrome bug is fixed. Thank for letting me know about Edge.

    EA_Nils​ thanks for replying. I'm glad to hear there's awareness of the issue. I saw the alert by EA_Spectre, but wasn't sure if it was related to this issue because the post is 11 months old.
