I have Safari 14.1, Google Chrome 87, and Firefox 85.0.2.

When I go to the VPN > Servers > IPSec tab, the first two browsers jump to 100% CPU for that one tab (each tab is its own process). This only happens in Safari and Chrome. It does not happen in Firefox. I am not using Greasemonkey or script modifiers. Turning off the ad-blocker makes no difference.

I'm going to run a performance monitor on both to see if I can find where it's breaking down...
 
Chrome eventually loaded the page after ~6 minutes. Firefox loaded it within ~10 seconds.

See enclosed JSON debugging profiles.

 
No clue. My gut tells me, reset the router to factory defaults and reconfigure manually (do NOT restore from a backup). And clear the cache from your browsers.
