Chrome “Unresponsive Page” false-positive (since Chrome 32)

Answer 1

Okay here’s the solution you can do without changing your theme, right click on my computer, go to your System Properties, and then go to "Advanced", click on "Settings" under Performance, then check the below radio button. This seems to stop it

Answer 2

I fixed that problem by linking modem directly to my PC, didn't reinstall or change Chrome or anything. I skipped connection through my wireless router which I think was the problem from the start... now all the pages Chrome couldn't load are loading with no problem at all. Maybe it's time to by a new router...

Answer 4

I started getting this problem as well.

In searching, I came accross this issue https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=335248.

As best I figured out, the bug is related to:

• Windows 7/8 with Aero Theme
• Scrollbars on pages (such as in the developer console)
• Pages with popups (in particular Window.open() calls)

I guess they are slated to push the fix into version 33...and maybe leave the stable* 32 how it is (although I hope not).

So there are a few options:

• Switch away from Aero Theme until version 33 is in stable
• Upgrade to the beta channel, i.e. version 33
• Click on the Wait button every 30 seconds whenever the chrome developer tools is open.

Update:

Chrome has released a hotfix into the version 32 stable channel. http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.ro/2014/01/stable-channel-update_27.html

Thanks to @probackpacker for bringing it to my attention.

Answer 5

I have experienced this as well on Windows, it seems that this will happen in general when using the browser (not only within the web inspector). It also seems to happen more often when loading flash content (such as a game). The browser and flash areas are responding normally, but the browser thinks that they are not for whatever reason. Pressing wait seems to hide the dialog for a few minutes until it will re-appear again.

I've read that this bug is fixed in the next beta (version 33).

I have had this same issue with Chrome 32 (there are so many problems in the dev tools...) but it ONLY happens for me when I have the dev tools detached / undocked from the main browser window. You might be able to avoid it by re-docking the devtools if you are using them in un-docked mode.
