When I switch from virtual desktop A to virtual desktop B, my windows in A get throttled.

Is there a power saving feature to disable that throttling?

For example in chrome(ium), requestAnimationFrame is disabled until I switch back to the desktop A. I've looked in chrome(ium) flags and found only disable-background-throttle but does not affect RAF.

On Windows, virtual desktops do not throttle windows in other desktops, so I thought it is an OS feature rather than a program one.

  • Windows andOS X are two very different operating systems you shouldn’t try and compare them

  • It wasn't even a feature in Windows until Windows 10 it's not that common, and how they work between OS X, Solaris, Linux, and Windows are all different.
