I have a site that is constantly refreshing multiple tables on a page, sourcing them for external php files. This is to give the perception of automatically updating tables of job data.
But each of these tables is refreshing every 2 seconds, which you don't notice but the browser definitely notices because it becomes slow after a while of sitting on the same page.
Because I didn't set up the foundations of the website, I'm now looking into a way to avoid the browser becoming so laggy when staying on a page for an extended period of time, mostly because I want to have a page constantly open on our server.
Is there any way to do this through javascript?
