Chrome Extension is stuck on loading

Symptom: Chrome Extension get stuck on loadingand never sends a report of the page?

Cause

Chrome Extension uses a web timer to measure the time it takes to fully load a monitored page. When loading a new monitored page the Chrome Extension starts the web timer. The page sends a number of requests to get the files that contain the content of the page. While these requests are being handled, the Chrome Extension will display the loading icon . When all requests have been answered, the timer stops and writes the report. The Chrome extension will then display the measured time . Unfortunately some websites have content that requires constant requests. This means that the web timer never stops as there is constantly unanswered requests, and this is why the Extension is stuck on loading.
