I don't know if anybody REALLY can have more than 1000 tabs open as in completely loaded into RAM. When my computer is slow I pray that I don't have any unsent edit windows or unfinished youtube/twitch videos and just kill all the render processes.
Chrome kills them regularly on it's own, which means they simply crash with out of memory.
For me, Chrome generally handles killed renderers better, e.g. it shows a popup about crashed extensions and just reloads them. Firefox requires me to quickly disable and enable adblock and I lose the build in screenshot extension permanently (except disabling and renabling it with about:config).
But for chrome a renderer often just freezes and only a day later there is a popup about it which offers to kill it.
Firefox seems to handle the tabs better overall, but at some point session resume fails with javascript errors in the shell.
Chrome seems to handle session restore a bit better.
