Certainly it's possible for the script author to throttle. Not so much for the web site visitor.

- jopsen 9y agoI hope it's just a matter of time before browsers start to throttle sites... Or maybe search rankings will be affected by CPU usage, and bandwidth.
- flukus 9y agoChrome has added throttling for inactive tabs. The problem is this is an active tab open for long stretches of time doing a somewhat cpu intensive task, so throttling isn't an option. I also doubt that be too adversely affected by slipping down the search rankings in this case.
- hubcaps 9y agoBandwidth and loads time already do play a part in search rankings, at least with Google.
- swsieber 9y agoWhich is a lot easier toeasure than long running CPU usage unfortunately (at least not without privacy concerns - e.g. getting real world data from users)
