I love this extension. But recently this extension consumes a lot of CPU for no reason. I am afraid that there are some bugs. I noticed the problem because the fan of my laptop made a lot of noise. So I checked the Task Manager of Chrome, and I found out that this extension was using 100% CPU. After ending the process manually, my laptop fan was calm down. I hope the developer can look into this problem. Thanks!
