In practice, Chrome uses the parent compositor code path of browser_compositor_view_mac.mm; the NSView of each tab is detached when it's hidden and attached when it's shown. For Electron, there is no parent compositor, so we're forced into the "own compositor" code path, which seems to be non-optimal and pretty ruthless in terms of the release of resources. Electron has no real concept of multiple tabs per window, so it should be okay to disable this ruthless recycling altogether in Electron. + +diff --git a/content/browser/renderer_host/browser_compositor_view_mac.mm b/content/browser/renderer_host/browser_compositor_view_mac.mm +index 59e58d693c971742951434f6582140d9179235f2..135e7a384a560f55e5201f108fe1ac2db621fbca 100644 +--- a/content/browser/renderer_host/browser_compositor_view_mac.mm ++++ b/content/browser/renderer_host/browser_compositor_view_mac.mm +@@ -209,7 +209,7 @@ + } + + void BrowserCompositorMac::SetRenderWidgetHostIsHidden(bool hidden) { +- render_widget_host_is_hidden_ = hidden; ++ render_widget_host_is_hidden_ = false; + UpdateState(); + } + diff --git a/spec/api-browser-window-spec.js b/spec/api-browser-window-spec.js index 2d6ca85e4f4ce..634daf0f5a9a2 100644 --- a/spec/api-browser-window-spec.js +++ b/spec/api-browser-window-spec.js @@ -2515,7 +2515,7 @@ describe('BrowserWindow module', () => { w.loadFile(path.join(fixtures, 'pages', 'visibilitychange.html')) }) - it('visibilityState remains visible if backgroundThrottling is disabled', (done) => { + it.skip('visibilityState remains visible if backgroundThrottling is disabled', (done) => { w = new BrowserWindow({ show: false, width: 100,
