Since the latest Brave update, my Mac has been really, really slow, the fan is running at full speed and the battery is draining at an alarming rate!

I have to close Brave to get everything back to normal.

No issues with Firefox, Chrome or Safari.

I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled Brave by downloading it again, but that hasn’t solved the problem.

I’ve plenty of space on the hard drive even with no apps open, but it goes haywire if Brave is open.

Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. macbook pro 16 pouce 2019 - Tahoe 26.4

  2. Brave 1.88.138 (Build officiel) (x86_64)

  3. After two minutes, panic breaks out on the Mac

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave): Brave 1.88.138 (Build officiel) (x86_64)

Cooling - I have used for many years:

So, whatever about Brave Browser is a cause … meanwhile, keeping the Mac cooler (using Macs Fan Control), will help to reduce the Mac’s response → its attempts to reduce performance and thereby cool things down.
