This. External webpages normally take like forever as well

Maybe this should be less "heavy" https://steamdb.info/calculator

Stop projecting.
zypA13510 hasn't indicated any of the judgment inherent to your question.

Because zypA13510 wants to be able to look at someone's games list without freezing his browser?
I tried to visit someone's games list who has 4500+ games today and the same thing happened to me. I also use Chrome. And this had nothing to do with SG.
Wanting to be able to see a large Steam library without dealing with freezing is a valid concern on its face.
Edit: and you deleted your comments like a shameful clown. If you're going to be that crappy about your hot takes and that cowardly about owning the things you say please go Full Coward and just don't participate at all.

(for steam gifts only)
If you add him as friend, try to send him the gift through steam(dont send yet), in the list of your friend it shall show if he owns anything in the gift you going to send.

You don't actually need a gift you can just add the item to your cart and choose to "send my gift directly through Steam".

Someone told me about the Steam Web API, you might want to look that up?
Basically just get an API key, find the appid of the game, get the id of the user you want to check, then call the method mentioned in the linked comment.

I just wonder, why there isn't such function made available on SGTools yet?
I thought it's because Steam does not provide such API. But judging from what you provided, it could be implemented quite easily. So, why?
Anyway, thanks for this info. Maybe I should write a userscript someday when I'm free.

You have to wait, chrome takes a few minutes to open the games page, but it does eventually.

Add as a friend and use page
http://steamcommunity.com/my/friendsthatplay/appid
for example:
http://steamcommunity.com/my/friendsthatplay/378648
Works for DLC too.

It always seems to be the image loading that slows my browser down on large libraries. The same thing happens when loading a large inventory. Using the API is often faster though neither method is of much use for checking DLCs. For those I generally have to add the user as a friend to check ownership.

Just a quick question here, how do you check the winner if they have thousands of (maybe tens of thousands of) games on their account?
I tried to open the games page on their Steam profile and my Chrome becomes entirely unresponsive the next 5 minutes. Typing into the filter box takes me another 10 minutes. :(
And sadly SGTool doesn't cover this function.
So what's your suggestion?
