Computer analysis overloading browser

Everytime I do or tinker in a lichess computer analysis my CPU usage skyrockets.

I read in the lichess blog that you made it so that our computers would participate locally in the analysis.

I can't find a way to regulate it so that it doesn't use all of my threads.

Meanwhile the browser gets frequent freezes and hangs in the analysis page.
Firefox latest version 49.0

Thanks for your time
Hi @Manuel2,

In the analysis menu (bottom right in my browser) you can set the amount of resources you want to use (number of processors and memory). This should help minimizing the damage ;)
@kiseiju Thanks for your answer.

I cannot find it.

I did see the menu you are talking about in the lichess blog but I don't see it in my browser.
I believe the CPU tweaks only work in Chrome and Opera at the moment, with Firefox still being developed.

(See latest development blog entry)
You could try switching the "evaluation gauge" off. This helped me, at least.
