In fact tab suspending/discarding has been built into Chrome for some time now and Great Suspender does optionally make use of the built-in functionality. I still sometimes use extensions like Great Suspender to give more control over the process (e.g. to suspend more aggressively on RAM-constrained machines or where the user uses a lot of tabs). Since this news came out I have switched to "Auto Tab Discard".
