More ram in use generally means more javascript crap running. Which means higher cpu/energy use. Its not the memory use its what is using the memory.

  So...the claim is that chrome runs a lot more javascript than safari?

    I'll phrase it more that I see significantly more memory use in Chrome for long lived processes than I do with Safari. That said, eventually both get to 6g of ram in use and a restart is needed anyway.
