Details

I took a profile of my browser session on my laptop while it was pretty much idle.  I have a number of pinned tabs open (gmail, irccloud, twitter, telegram), but was focusing an example.com tab.

This profile shows that we seem to access cookies from browser chrome script every 3 seconds or so, even when the process is doing nothing else:

The profiler just shows <name omitted>, so I'm not sure which chrome script it is.

Well, it says, "<name omitted> XUL".  Perhaps thats not clear if its browser chrome or not.
Nevermind.  It was content script, but the profiler just wasn't showing the js location for some reason.
