Re: [Edbrowse-dev] javascript() in timer side effects

[Kevin Carhart <kevin@carhart.net>]

Thanks!

Wow, this change reveals just how chatty the major websites are.
At db4, on the login page of paypal, there is a constant stream
of js on a very short interval like '50'.
To experience it in a serialized kind of way is interesting,
different from either the web in a GUI, or from a completely
discrete edbrowse session which is quiet until you trigger it.
Kind of reminds me of monitoring tcpdump or an http proxy, except
all it's doing is run client side code over and over.
(until we open the can of worms of XHR!)
