Answer 1

Chrome provides useful tools to monitor your extension through the built-in Chrome DevTools.

• If your extension is a popup, right click in it and choose Inspect element.
• If your extension runs in background, go to the extensions page and click on the link background page of your extension.

In there you can:

• evaluate network performance
• profile the application Timeline
• profile the JavaScript execution

Google Developers' ressources are the best way to learn more about these tools.
