You've asked a subset of the real question: Why is every $#@!
web browser so slow?
I started using google-chrome a while back because of the
rep it had for being fast, but every single release (and
they seem to happen every few days) bogs it down more and
more.
Been using chrome for a long time now. No slowness for me. Except for a few
sites. But I found it is due to one of several things for them. For some, it is
they are just have a bad hosting platform. For others it is that they load to much
ads and stuff from other sites. And for a few it is due to their extensive use of
scripts.
