Stop browser from lowering priority of a tab I'm not on.
Originally created by Tails on #5333 (Redmine)
The tor system has a lot of lag (understandable) and so I like to read one page (in another tab) while the other one is loading. When I change tabs, though, it seems the browser does not keep trying to get through to the page I clicked on (in the tab I’m not on anymore)as agressively. This often leads to my not getting to pages unless I stay in the tab waiting for it to connect and transfer data. This is taking up a lot of my time waiting for slow pages. I think I am asking for a setting I can click on disableing the standard behaviour. If such a setting already exists, sorry for not realizing it.
I don’t think any such priority change according to tab active status exists in Firefox / Iceweasel at all, and even using the same "load tons of tabs in background" pattern, I’ve never experienced such an issue. Please provide enough information so that we can reproduce it and reopen this ticket if needed. Closing in the meantime.
