having this web page open made firefox continuously use 50% of my (four-core) cpu and increase my power consumption dramatically nothing visible on the page accounts for this
there's no long-running JS so nothing invisible really accounts for it either. is the background's SVG noise having difficulty rendering on your machine?
Earlier quoted context omitted.

it's an interesting question; how could i find out?
html { background-image: unset; }
you could see if that made the CPU calm down any, maybe?
The other two things that maybe could explain it would be the animated star GIF background (the GIF itself shouldn't be too bad, but maybe because it resizes with the page?) which could be tested a similar way with
#sideframe { background-image: unset;}
or the use of border-image, which really shouldn't be difficult to render, but which I've noticed e.g. Safari often gets weird about, so
* {border-image: none !important;}
The whole thing is developed on Firefox, so a bummer to hear it's having issues. (And someone above said it couldn't copy-paste – there's certainly nothing meant to do that!)
