Idle loop cpu usage

[asl97]

Idle loop cpu usage tend to be fairly high compare to other idle game.
Might I suggest a "Low Load Mode" or an adjustable FPS setting?

I don't know if it's related to all the extensions I have (which are disabled, but still), but a clean session on firefox performs much better.
Which is weird.

@Saucistophe That doesn't seem very weird, clean session always perform better.

In any case, Idle loop is a very dom heavy game, high dom update time is to be expected.
However being able to reduce the fps would greatly reduce the overall cpu usage.

You can try putting recalcInterval(1) into the devtool console or whatever it is called on firefox.
It reduce the fps to 1 and thus reduce cpu load to a level which I didn't mind leaving open in the background (for a idle game).
