Problem description: I have a synthesizer that I have conceptualized in Javascript and HTML, and I'd like to present it without yet porting it to something else that would allow me a lot more resources. I sometimes use 50 oscillators or more. My computer's audio begins to get choppy, even though 80% or more CPU resources are available in activity monitor. I'd like to somehow see if there's a way to throttle Chrome. Is there some setting I can tweak or developer tool I can use? I know Chrome is seen as a resource hog, but it does not look like that to me in Activity Monitor. Another option is using a different browser; maybe one that has performance options for developers.

Attempted fixes: I went to chrome://settings/content/unsandboxedPlugins and turned off "Ask when a site wants to use a plugin to access your computer", but it doesn't seem to help.

Operating system: Mac OS 10.15.7

System specs:
Mac mini (2018)
Processor: 3 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5
Memory: 8 GB 2667 MHz DDR4
Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB
