Oddly enough, the page partially loads, hangs, crashes the tab and attempts to reload, hangs, and then crashes the entire running mobile chrome instance on my phone.

I don't think I've ever seen that before! I'm guessing the page is just memory heavy and android 11's memory manager can't figure out how to deal with it.

( chrome mobile, pixel 3 xl, android 11 )

100% cpu for me, browser tab uses 3+ GB ram, chromium hangs then crashes

oh no! My best guess would be that there are many element-heavy SVGs on the page. I was hoping for better performance, since the files will almost definitely be smaller than large raster images, but there are likely older browsers that have trouble with that. I'll look into it, thanks for the report!
