> too many tabs can still kill it "Kill"? Does your desktop stop responding and show a BSOD? How many tabs do you have open when that happens? I don't know how heavily people use their Chrome but for me, ~50-100 tabs across ~5 windows across 3-4 virtual desktops seems to not hinder my laptop at all. It's very responsive and no crashes. To be honest I've never seen a system getting "kill"ed due to too many tabs. My usage does not involve many video/audio tabs though. It's mostly lots of text pages and the usual mailboxes etc. I think browsers should follow a similar paradigm for background tabs as the OS follows for background apps, ie, both have an equal share on resources unless foreground apps start slowing down due to background activity.
