Performance issue with web applications when Bitwarden browser extension is enabled

Dear Community!

We are using the browser extension with Edge and Firefox.

From beginning we faced a performance slowdown during the work in more then one web application. When we close the tab and restart the web session the performance is fine for a while again. After couple of minutes / hours it slows down again.

But when the Bitwarden browser extension is not enabled, there is absolutely no performance issue. The web application works as aspect (tested with three different web apps).

So there is definitely a relation between the performance and the Bitwarden browser extension.

Has anybody faced this too and/or has anybody an idea how we can fix this?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards from Germany

Sebastian
