  1. So there are various engines in the browser: 1. The browser engine, 2. The rendering engine, 3. The JavaScript Engine
    These are the three main engines. The V8 engine is an example of a JavaScript engine. Chrome uses the V8 engine, Safari uses JavaScriptCore, and Firefox uses SpiderMonkey

  2. If you extract the inline to an external local file , the behavior is not the same.

    “`html

    body,
    html {
    height: 100%;
    width: 100%;
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    }

    1

    <!– http://./1.js –>

    i = 0;
    do {
    i++;
    } while (i < 1000000000)
    matrix.innerText = i;
