The new RWD beta took up a lot of my laptops memory

Expected behavior

I started using the new RWD beta yesterday. I did the HTML section, then moved on to the CSS cafe menu. The further I got in the CSS challenge, the slower the website got till it became next to useless. I checked it wasn’t my internet so checked the processes. Chrome was showing that that tab alone was taking up 6,518,976K memory and was using 94.3% CPU. I used the end process which gave me the “Oops, something went wrong” page from chrome. I reloaded the page and it was ok, but not for long. I found I kept having to do this process throughout the CSS challenge. Today, I moved on to the CSS marker pens and the system worked ok. Once I’d finished it, however, I checked again and the tab was using 1,154,648K memory (but was not (yet) showing any signs of being slow or causing chrome to say the page was unresponsive)

I’ve changed laptop since I first reported this, so I can’t test it anymore.

No worries @DevOps-DoDo https://github.com/DevOps-DoDo. This would be a significant problem if everyone was seeing it, so there’s no harm in reporting. And like I said, I could be wrong here. Just seems like we would have seen more from users. I’m curious if you are still facing the problem, maybe we can continue to dive into it further to see if we can find the cause.
