Description

Am getting a script is causing this page to be unresponsive, and it says VimVixen. Offers to wait, stop it, etc. Not all the time, but fairly often where it makes it unusable.
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/warning-unresponsive-script#w_other-causes

Failure Information (for bugs)

Not sure?

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Browse a webpage
  2. Happens randomly
    I can confirm it was happening on 4chan. I've had it happen on other sites too, I forget which.

System configuration

  • Operating system: 5.5.13-arch2-1, Arch Linux
  • Firefox version: Firefox 68.5.0esr (64-bit)
  • Vim-Vixen version: 0.27

This is probably due to the JavaScript on the page generating a bunch of links through JavaScript and making Vim Vixen do extra work to keep up. 4chanX via Violentmonkey causes this even on a high end Ryzen desktop, but disabling 4chanX completely fixes the performance problem.

@tidux So essentially theres nothing that can be done about this besides not using vixen on sites that have issues like this?
Is there a way to blacklist sites?

Would like to add onto this instead of opening a new issue, first this issue does still occur and It would still be very nice to see a workaround besides just blacklisting the page if possible.

but secondly I notice Vim Vixen just doesn't work at all on some pages (like Firefox's Add-ons Manager page) which is my main reason for commenting here atm.

Extensions not working on the add-on page is a deliberate choice by Mozilla to prevent people from tricking users into installing things they don't want.

Understandable.
