How to force timer throttling for the active tab in Chrome?
Chrome (and other web browsers) implements a timer throttling mechanism to reduce CPU usage of non-focused (background) tabs and thus extend the laptop's battery life: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/03/background_tabs#budget-based_background_timer_throttling
Is it possible to force-enable this throttling for the active (foreground, focused) tab as well?
