SABnzbd+ sometimes locks up/freezes/slows down?

If I leave my computer or even SAB without touching it for long periods of time (10 hours), and I switch back to its windows, sometimes it's extremely slow. The entire area of SAB will be black and say not responding, and the browser tries to recover the page (this is with IE).

Also, at other times I'll switch to the window and it will be locked up. Like I have it set to refresh every 1 sec but those times it won't move. The time left won't change, neither will the download bar or the speed. (this is with Firefox)

The only way to fix it is resetting the process. I try resetting from the options but nothing happens.

Is this something on my end (like Noscript interfering or something of that nature) or a stability issue with the program itself?

We generally don't recommend a refresh rate of 1 second.
Especially not if you have multiple browsers windows to it open or have browser add-ons that interface to SABnzbd.

That might be the problem. I have about 35 tabs open with a few add ons lol. Should 30 seconds be okay?

Each main page refresh is a relatively big strain for SABnzbd,
so 30 seconds is a lot safer.
