I have a chrome app which is used to get data from the chrome serial API, and repeat it over a websocket server based on the chrome example websocket server. Recently, after a chrome update mid april, the app stopped performing while not in the foreground.
When the app is not in the foreground the communication slows to a crawl and impacts my apps performance. This has been replicated on multiple OSX machines - other platforms I have not tested.
The part of the app doing the communication is not in a background js file. Would moving it there fix this problem?
