How To Simulate Lower CPU Processor Machines For Browser Testing

Question

We have some users which are using lower-CPU powered machines and they\'re encountering slow response times using our web application. Is there any way for me to do testing

Answer 1

Isak Savo'sanswer works, but can be a bit finicky, as the modern tpl is going to try and limit cpu load as much as possible. When I tested it out, It was hard (though possible with some testing) to consistently get the types of cpu usages I wanted.

Then I remembered, http://www.cpukiller.com/, which does this already. Highly recommended. As an aside, I found this util from playing old 90s games on modern machines, back when frame rate was pegged to cpu clock time, making playing them on modern computers way too fast. Great utility.
