As a person who also has way too manu tabs open at all times, I've had success with the great suspender [0]. It "suspends" pages after a timeout so they use less memory.

- TheOtherHobbes 9y agoSeconded. I reliably have a few hundred tabs open, and GS keeps them all manageable. It’s not always happy if Chrome crashes or I have to do a cold reboot, but mostly it keeps Chrome’s gluttony under control.
- LordDragonfang 9y agoThe current version also has a bug where it will create so many cookies on google-owned domains that it will exceed the header limit and cause a 500 response. The dev refuses to fix it until he implements a feature to make suspended tabs persist across updates, which is apparently slow going.
- imhoguy 9y agoWell, it is opensource so anyone can fix it for fun or profit: https://github.com/deanoemcke/thegreatsuspender https://github.com/deanoemcke/thegreatsuspender
- EGreg 9y agoAt this point why not just use something like OneTab? It also syncs the tabs across many computers.
