You must be looking at very media heavy sites, then. Looking at Chrome's task manager (shift-escape opens it), my per-tab memory usage ranges between ~2.4MB (HN pages) to ~44MB (a youtube video). The root process is using 120MB, GPU process 50MB, and Flash 94MB. So, in total, for 20 tabs I'm using 545MB, or 27.25MB/tab. A far cry from "~100 MiB per tab".
Note that I'm on Windows 7 x64; while you may be entirely correct about Chrome on your platform of choice, it sounds like FUD to me.
