This was mentioned in a previous HN thread and I thought it was a brilliant idea.

By default, browsers should throttle websites. Throttle their CPU and their ram usage, and websites can then ask for permission to be unthrottled.

We have very capable computers now. But the web feels just as slow. Some negative pressure against bloat is sorely sorely needed.
