Is something mining on lichess?

As soon as I just open site, CPU load immediately raises to 50%.
Chrome, W8.1; (VMware)
Chrome task manager show exactly main page tab 50%. Other sites don't show any CPU overload. Other pages on lichess (forum) don't show too.
I don't use VMware and the front page is notoriously heavy/laggy (I.e. I may get issues such as skipping videos in other tabs when I am on the front page). As soon as it goes away from the front page, everything speeds up though. My guess would be something about the game search lobby?
+1.
My "intel core i7" loads 20-25% on the main page...
New clean windows 7 after install.
I don't know what it is. :-(

I confirm something is off on the homepage. Thanks for the notice.

I can tell you it's NOT mining. But a performance bug must have sneaked in. I will find it, and I will kill it.
Public notice to all performance bugs:

I'd like to introduce you to Firefox. Chrome is excellent but needs too many resources, while Firefox does the same for less.
Fixed!

Indeed that was a Chrome bug, and Firefox wasn't affected.
