Stop ChatGPT from freezing and lagging - in one click.

Speed Booster for ChatGPT makes huge conversations smooth again by rendering only a configurable number of messages at a time — no lost context, no data collection, no slowdown.

If you use ChatGPT for coding, writing, research, or long discussions, you know the problem: once a chat gets long, Chrome slows to a crawl, scrolling becomes jittery, and CPU usage spikes.

Speed Booster for ChatGPT solves this instantly.

🚀 What it does

Makes ChatGPT fast again — even in threads with 500+ messages — by rendering only the latest set of messages at first. You can configure exactly how many messages to keep visible!

It only works for the moment you don't scroll. The moment you start reading your history, it gets the same laggy as before. The approach and idea is good, but it can't fix a horrific coded frontend chat as chatgpt sadly is. One star is entirely added for the reason I cannot tell for sure the other addon might be in conflict with this one & for the good will the author was showing for sharing an idea born of the intention to help. In my specific case: - Probably a conflict with superpower-GPT, not sure, it's not like you can easily disable and enable it without things being partly messed up, so I don't mess with that addon if I don't wanna get rid of it for good. - Using OperaGX (Chrome based, capable of using Chrome addons) Anyways. Thanks for the attempt.

The version that was available as of Jan 14 2026 is working great for me. Finally, a solution to a problem that should have never existed in the first place. (I tried Tampermonkey'ing this myself and couldn't get it to work reliably. Well done.)

Didn't work me on brave but discovered that if you hit F5, the chat is faster. Probably useless to do this in chrome (maybe it refresh itself)

Works okay in some situations, but not effective at all for very long conversations. It works by completely hiding most of the previous conversation (even things as recently as the message immediately preceding the current one). This is a bit annoying because it breaks search using Ctrl+F to look back through a conversation. It seems like a bit of an ad-hoc fix that isn't actually addressing whatever the core problem is. This lag wasn't an issue before on chatgpt.com (and it isn't an issue at all on the mobile app), so it is something to do with a recent update and I don't see why it would involve hiding messages etc. Had to uninstall today because, after a recent update, it started spamming me with donation nag popups in every single chat. Worse, it is now auto-redirecting me to the developer's ko-fi. Completely unacceptable thing to do (pretty sure it violates the Chrome Web Store's ToS?). Happy to throw a dollar for an extension developer's weekend project, but not if the extension barely works, and definitely not when the developer is pushing nefarious updates that hijack my browser to nag me about it. That is not okay.

Has a massive lag spike whenever a conversation is open, and on top of that, the annoying "buy me a coffee" comes up way too often. Chill out bro and let people decide if they want to give you a $1.

A little finicky at first, but once you figure out how it works, it works wonderfully, quick tip for anyone, it works much better if you don't scroll at all after entering a prompt, if you do, it doesn't work nearly as well.
