As mentioned in our 2021-12-09 meeting (#141), we need to document and streamline the conditions at which non-persistent background pages / service workers are being suspended as this greatly varies between browsers and manifest versions.

Goals:

  • Document current behavior in each browser / manifest version
  • Determine the ideal conditions for suspension
  • Time in between no-activity and actually suspending the event page / serviceWorker
