What's with rendering NASA's picture archive?
Posted: Thu Dec 05, 2019 9:05 am
My OS is Windows 7
I have Slimjet 24.0.6.0 (latest and greatest as of this posting) with NoScript extension.
This page ==> https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/archivepix.html
This is just a list of dates and links to pictures with no fancy navigation.
I have nasa.gov 100% whitelisted for the Slimjet ad blocker and for NoScript.
The rest of the nasa.gov site works fine, but on that page it freezes.
And it didn't used to freeze with previous versions of Slimjet before a certain point.
When I go to that page they have added this text to the heading:
But if I had some insight into exactly what is going on, perhaps I could design a work-around (if no one beats me to it) and share it.
I already tried turning off "Preload pages for faster browsing and searching" and it doesn't help.
Thank you.

So I know the problem is not Slimjet as such.Note: Some versions of Chrome are having trouble pre-fetching the links on this page and freezing.
