Google Chrome spoils Windows-laptops
Presents Google Chrome is leading among the famous products in the electronics market.
But, there was the opinion that the owners of laptops with Windows, it may not cheap to do, because Chrome, according to the study, adversely affects the operation of the battery.
The first problem was identified, the editor of Forbes magazine Jan Maurice. According to him, the inconsistencies found in the features of the processor on personal computers with Windows installed on your Internet browser Google Chrome. By default, Windows cause the processor to work with obvious intervals to save power.
Traditionally it "wakes up" 64 times per second and does all the work, which had accumulated before again awake. But to speed up their work Chrome will cause the processor to "Wake up" more often is 1,000 times per second. Consequently, the laptop is starting to consume 25% more energy, which leads eventually wear out the battery.
With all this acceleration "Wake-up" processor works always, until Chrome is located in the run mode, even if the browser window is minimized and is not applied at the moment. For comparison, the same browser Internet Explorer, which many who are not happy, activates similar mode only when it is required increased performance. For example, when you want to view the video on YouTube, and once the tab is closed, then immediately turn it off.
"Just imagine how much energy worldwide is wasted in consequence of this misstep Google" With all this on Mac and Linux, such problems are not identified here Chrome manifests itself completely "respectable" says Maurice in Forbes. After Maurice published a problem and was attracted to her social attention, it was discovered that he was not the 1st, who has been in the same situation. A bug was found and other users, they repeatedly sent the news about an error in Google, but the company not listen to them.
