Chrome <input> laggy only when wrapped in <form>

I have an ASP.NET webpage that is rendering many (~3000) <input type="text"> textboxes on a single page (that are client-side only, i.e. do not need to postback). In Chrome, if these inputs are wrapped in <form> tags, Chrome will hang while I'm typing into the textboxes. (Duration is proportianal to how many textboxes are on the page). Firefox and IE do not have these problems.

You can view samples of my pages in the following links:

My questions:

  1. Why is this? What exactly does <form> mean to a web browser?
  2. My ASP.NET project requires the use of a <form> tag. How else can my site be made compatible with Chrome?

Nathan I just try the pages that you give and they not hung at all to me. I use the Chrome version 19.0.1055.1

Now what I remember is that I have a similar issue and was because of an extension !

Google Chrome is still developing and go from version 1 to 19 in one day :) and extensions are not so good tested with this version change. So extension that have been written just before some months maybe have problems now.

Disable all extensions to see if the problem goes away, and then if it does, just locate the one that have the issue.
