    Yeah pretty much. It appears that pages with web-sockets won't be subject to the throttle, so depending on a performance impact I can just make one of HF so it won't be affected.

    I can't be the only one using the Simpsons' address on these Kari's. And of course for the phone it has to be:

    For me,
    Panda Crazy (dedicated window): 3-8% at all times (Note: I don't even have anything collecting currently.)
    HIT Scraper (3 pages, 100 results, delay 5): 0-1% when not searching, 22-46% when search is active
    Overwatch: 0-1%, intermittently 3-5%, spikes to ~20% at times

    Also, "Tabs playing audio are already unthrottled."

    Depends on how you have everything setup. Everything that isn't in its own window as the top tab will be slower. So having PC not as a top level tab, it will panda slower. Having HF/OW not as a top level tab will mean they search less quickly.

    So for these Kari's, am I right in choosing Yes (other) for Q2 if I see the logos, but only after making an account? I would choose immediately visible in the cart, but they aren't immediately visible.

    re: Jeff DeWitt - screw all of you :salt:
    "In a recent HIT your bonus was determined by the choice made by you and another MTurker. You chose option A which could result in either a $0.7 bonus for you or a $0 bonus. Unfortunately, the person you were randomly paired with chose B which resulted in you receiving $0 and them receiving $1. Thank you again for your participation in this HIT!" :emoji_rage:

    My understanding is that "immediately" is meant to be differentiate between the logos being shown from having to select it from a drop-down menu from having to type in the numbers to have the method (by way of name or logo) appear. Someone feel free to chime in.

    Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

    You've received a bonus from Jeff DeWitt for work related to 3X2YVV51PU4W38XE9UHWSB94KOHW18.
    The value of your bonus is: $7.00 USD

    The Requester included this note:
    "In a recent HIT you were asked to allocate a $10 bonus payment/Amazon gift card payment between yourself and another person. Based on your choices, you are receiving $7 as payment.

    This was the "how much do you like your friend? enough to send em some of your bonus?" hit. :)

    As someone on a desktop the CPU hit isn't a big deal but I'm sure it is worth seeing how bad it is for people that do.

    Wow is hit scraper really that poorly optimized? I know that Kadauchi has done a lot of work to optimize HF but I didn't think that HS was that bad.

    :hug:

    I didn't get any bonus either from jeff.

    If I recall correctly that is already limiting you a bit. I believe that you are limited to a bit over a 1 second timer on pages unless it has it's own window? I haven't really looked into it much but I have PC in a dedicated window currently.
