>There is no upside to using more memory.
But there is an upside to better security. It'd be great if it was a free lunch but apparently it's not.
>Chrome needs to be as efficient as possible.
Chrome needs to make its users as happy as possible. Efficiency only matters when it starts affecting user happiness.
>Creating an ideal situation to make Chrome fit is disingenuous.
Do you know that it's an "ideal" situation rather than typical? I don't either but I also suspect Google wouldn't turn this on if it was going to negatively affect most users because they run the risk of losing market share to Safari/Firefox/Edge. I'm open to evidence to the contrary.

That's most likely going to be in the Intel/AMDs court.
