Chrome has always been a memory hog. For example, the Intel chipset in my machine doesn't support installing more than 4Gb of memory (and I feel that it is artificial limitation to force consumers buy new Intel chipsets) and on top of that, some proprietary 32-bit operating system cannot use more than 3Gb because of so called "PCI hole" - a part of address space that is allocated for PCI devices and cannot be used for accessing memory. I think that browser developers are making a wrong choice. They increase memory consumption for caches and similar type of data so that complicated and bloated websites work faster; I don't want that. I don't visit such sites anyway and have JS disabled so I would prefer that browser just consumes less memory. Let bloated websites be slow; they deserve it.
