Win version of Chrome actually led to reducing battery life 25%

According to foreign media reports, "Forbes" writer Ian Morris (Ian Morris) recently published an article that the Windows version of Google Chrome browser there is a serious problem that can greatly accelerate the loss of battery power - in most In the case, the problem could even lead to a 25% reduction in notebook battery life.

Typically, the "system clock" of a Windows computer is 15.6 milliseconds per cycle - that is, the computer processor wakes up about 64 times every second to see if any tasks currently need to be executed. However, Maurice found through the tool that when Chrome is running, the PC processor wakes frequently on a once-per-second basis.

In other words, the processor only needs to see 64 tasks in a single second, and now 1,000 tasks are viewed per second.

"Microsoft also said that when the pulse reaches 1000 milliseconds per cycle, it will increase energy consumption by up to 25%." Morris said that "in addition to increasing energy consumption, changing the behavior of the system clock itself can also cause problems, because Is about the system as a whole and affects all other applications, but most of us find it hard to find that, given that ordinary users do not care about the system clock.
