Single browser tabs don't scale up to take advantage of the maximum available hardware on a modern computer (thankfully!). I'm not sure if it's intentional or just some invisible browser optimisation.
Anyhow, Facebook IS extremely inefficient, the tweet just shows an example of it. If anyone wants to see some other messed up stuff, open up a chat window and inspect a chat bubble.
From an i7 MacBook Pro with 16 gigs of ram /safari/ to an 8 core 16 thread Ryzen 2700X with 32 gigs of ram /chrome or ff/, nothing I have can handle having Facebook open for a long enough period without closing and reopening the tab every once in a while.
It's kind of insane.
The mobile apps seem to be the only somewhat performant way to access the service. Or to opt out of any timeline features and just use the chat via messenger.com.
