    Pause and unpause Chrome alternately.

    A modern browser now runs complex web pages and applications. Despite
    browser's power management feature, these pages/tabs on the browser
    often still eat considerable CPU cycles even though they only run in the
    background. Pausing (kill -STOP) the browser processes is a simple and
    effective way to stop CPU eating on Unix and prolong your laptop battery
    life. It can be performed whenever you are not using your browser for a
    little while, e.g. when you are typing on an editor or watching a movie.
    When you want to use your browser again, simply unpause (kill -CONT) it.

    fashion, by default every 5 minutes and 30 seconds. This is a compromise
    to save CPU time most of the time but then give time for web

    for WhatsApp Web to display new messages and sound notification.) It can
