Hi there

I'm on a 2016 nTB 13'' with 2.0ghz and 16GB Ram, latest macOS.

I run Safari in full screen mode to display TradingView realtime charts as I follow and trade Bitcoin/ Cryptos. It's really standard stuff, nothing extreme that Safari couldn't handle. It's only 1 chart window too. And that is in full screen on one Desktop. Then I have another Safari window on another desktop where I do regular browsing.

Yet it seems my laptop/ Safari can't even handle that. I'm not doing any heavy video editing or such but can't believe that Safari constantly hangs up, freezes and I see the spinning beach ball after a while (like 30-60min).

I could understand if this happened on a MacBook or a laptop model from 2010-2012 with only 4gb-8gb ram but come on, this is one of the latest laptops with 16GB ram.

What gives?
