Excessive CPU usage if not connected to the internet

If I have a cohost tab open and disconnect from internet, my CPU usage shoots up considerably (to over 50% usage on a single open tab, ~90% with two tabs, vs. ~5% when connected to the internet). Closing the cohost tab or reëstablishing connection causes CPU usage to fall back down to normal.

This is on Firefox 107 on Linux.

Also saw this on Chrome 109 on Linux, saw cpu usage at over 80% per cohost tab

i have a similar issue. as far as i can tell, it's because when the network connection is dropped cohost sends a request for feature flags to `/api/unleash-proxy` extremely quickly - in the tens of milliseconds between requests.
