Hi everyone,

Thanks for the feedback. Here are my responses:

1. An origin trial will allow Web developers to opt out of freezing. In 
addition to provide a quick way to prevent breakages, it will help us 
identify background use cases that might need dedicated APIs for support.

2. A blog post documenting the freezing policy and the origin trial will be 
published before the stable experiment.

3. I'm okay with adjusting the release schedule (e.g., "<10% in 133, 100% 
in 134") to help enterprise admins diagnose issues.

4. We'll track usage of the "Always keep these sites active" list in 
chrome://settings/performance. If usage increases significantly with 
freezing, we'll investigate and adjust accordingly. This list should be 
helpful to users with rare use cases, not a common solution.

5. Mail/chat/calendar apps shouldn't be affected, as the "high CPU usage" 
threshold will be significantly higher than their normal usage. If 
necessary, they can use the origin trial opt-out (short-term) or the Progress 
API <https://github.com/explainers-by-googlers/progress-notification> 
(long-term) 
to declare CPU intensive workloads and avoid being frozen. They can also 
use the Push API to deliver notifications even when they aren't loaded, are 
crashed or are frozen (we're interested to learn about any hurdles 
preventing apps from adopting the Push API).

6. Tabs with notification permission will be opted out of freezing 
initially. We aim to remove this opt-out eventually, as notifications 
typically don't require high CPU usage. For high CPU needs, the origin 
trial (short-term) or the Progress API 
<https://github.com/explainers-by-googlers/progress-notification> (long-term) 
are 
preferred solutions.

7. Pages with active WebRTC connections will be opted out, so 
videoconferencing apps will continue working, even if they don't capture 
from the camera/microphone/screen. No opt-out is planned for WebSockets or 
Web Transport, as they don't usually indicate CPU-intensive background 
functionality. The origin trial or Progress API can be used to avoid 
freezing despite running CPU-intensive workloads.

A note on the Progress API 
<https://github.com/explainers-by-googlers/progress-notification>: We want 
the Progress API to be a good way for pages to declare their need for 
background resources (CPU/network) when other APIs (WebRTC, audio playback, 
Web USB, etc.) don't apply. It will be tied to UI (TBD) so that users 
remain in control. Besides opting out of freezing, usage of the API can 
increase CPU/network priority. We know some pages need background resources 
without having progress information (e.g., stock market dashboards, 
cryptocurrency miners). We'll ensure the Progress API (which might be 
renamed) covers these cases.

Have a nice day,

François
