Google maps v3 is very slow with developer tools open in chrome

Within the last few months, I have noticed that when Developer Tools is open in Google Chrome, zooming in and out of a Google Map (Google Maps JavaScript API v3) is very slow. When Developer Tools is not open, Google Maps zooms perfectly.

Is there a setting I can turn off to make Google Maps zoom fast again?

I have tried not recording my Network" traffic, and I am not running a "Profile" or anything.

This problem is on any site with Google Maps v3 JavaScript API -- even the Google Maps Sample page: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-simple

Un-checking "Async" Checkbox in Developer Console -> Sources -> Async (Locate at left most of the screen) solved the problem for me.

I just clicked the little gear cog in the top right of Developer Tools, and then pressed "Restore defaults and reload", and now zooming Google Maps is fast again.

I must have had some setting checked that slowed it down.
