• This is not a support issue or a question
  • Support issues and questions are handled at /r/uBlockOrigin
• I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue
  • Your issue may already be reported.
• I tried to reproduce the issue when...
  • uBlock Origin is the only extension
  • uBlock Origin with default lists/settings
  • using a new, unmodified browser profile
• I am running the latest version of uBlock Origin
• I checked the documentation to understand that the issue I report is not a normal behavior

Description

Number of blocked requests on the extension icon appear second or two late after the webpage load.

A specific URL where the issue occurs

https://www.google.com/

Steps to Reproduce

1. Disable all extensions and only keep uBO enabled.

2. Browse to google.com and wait for the page to get loaded and notice that number of blocked requests appear second or two after the page loading stops.

3. For the sake of comparision, install v1.9.14 side by side and run both versions together on google.com, notice that with v1.9.14, the number of blocked requests appears as soon as the page is loaded but the latest dev build version take a second or two for that number to appear.

4. Refresh the page few more times to be able to reproduce this issue at will.

Watch the video I have attached below which displays the bug when compared with version v1.9.14 side-by-side. Reproducible on Firefox too but I can't provide a video of side by side comparison due to Firefox not allowing to install two versions side by side.

Expected behavior:

Number of blocked requests on the extension icon appears as soon as the webpage loading stops.

Actual behavior:

Number of blocked requests on the extension icon appears after a second or two late after the webpage loading stops. This started happening after v1.9.14.
