On an older but perfectly serviceable PC with 16GB RAM, Amazon.com idles at 20% CPU and will spike to 80-100% when scrolling. The screen tears and typing sometimes takes seconds before characters appear.

There are likely 50,000,000 lines of code between your hardware and the Amazon.com Javascript code that is idling at 20% CPU, and a minute fraction of it has been written by Amazon employees.
You're standing on a gigantic pile of crud, and blaming the little cherry that sits on top for tasting bad.
