Edge Canary freezes
Hello Since some version of Canary, on pages consuming resources (more than 800MB for example), Canary freezes for a few moments and returns to normal It also does if I open a new tab sometimes ...

Don't know if this relates to the same issue, but since changing to v89 engine I've got massive problems with freezing pages in either Dev and Canary (doesn't happen on Stable Channel).
Some examples to reproduce:
- when trying to scroll in dropdowns (eg category dropdown on amazon)
- when using datepickers
- when using translate.google.com and then hitting the back button several times
- when hitting the back button on youtube after playing a video
The browser hangs for 10-30 sec, saying "Edge is not responding", then returns to normal behaviour again. This also happens on Google Chrome Canary, so I assume it's some bug in the Chromium core.
And yes, I disabled all extensions and also set Hardware Acceleration to Off for testing, but thar doesn't change the freezing effect.

No longer able to include an attachment with feedback, I post here the freeze problem (not responding)
This bug appeared within 24 hours and is still not resolved almost 5 weeks later...

I'm testing on Version 89.0.752.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
and I can include attachments with feedback.
