How do I halt periodic DOM refreshes on a page?

Question

I'm on a page that probably has a interval timer which refreshes a table every several seconds -- now I want to stop this timer (not sure how to "sniff out" this timer or grab a hold of it) or somehow cancel or prevent these automatic periodic DOM refreshes -- so that I can play with styling in the debugging tool? By the way, jQuery is available.

Placing a break on 'subtree modification' in DevTools seems to work.
