Well the new site I'm administrating has this weird thing where I keep getting the load indicator (spinning half circle in Chrome tab) after the page has loaded.
This happens on every single page on the site, but only in Chrome.
How do I find out what's going on or what it's trying to load?

In Chrome, hit F12, select network, refresh it and see if anything strange is getting requested etc.

You can also use the audits tab and export the results, see if anything is standing out.

What's F12 supposed to do? On Mac it launches Dashboard.
Audits didn't tell me much, except the Google Analytics script should be above calling the stylesheet, unless it already is, in which case it should be below.

Can you not look at the timeline in developer tools?

The network tab should show you if someone is still being loaded across the network.
if nothing is then it must be spinning in the code. I think you can step through the code in chrome developer tools. Try that and see where it just keeps looping or hangs

Annoyingly I can't reproduce it now, even though it's been doing it for days... 
Cheers for the tricks, I'll look out for it and try these things if it happens again.

It'll be something external hanging. It's usually Google Analytics, a script from a CDN or something along those lines.
