I use Chrome as my only browser. On my desktop, I run an average of 20 tabs open at any given time, across two windows. I also run Chrome on my Android phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 3) and keep 4--8 tabs open at any given time. I reboot my desktop once every 1--2 weeks, and my phone maybe once per month.
Other than the rare tab freezing up and needing to be restarted, I've had absolutely no issues. Chrome just works.
- ergothus 12y agoOur workflow sounds similar, except that when my system reboots, Chrome is frozen for a minute as every tab tries to reload simultaneously, following by confusion as any youtube tabs all start playing. On Firefox I had no such issue as each tab would only reload on focus.
- jackmaney 12y agoThat's...very strange. I don't recall Chrome trying to open up every tab that I've had open before rebooting. [digs into settings] Ah, that's it: on Settings > On Startup, I've selected "Open The New Tab Page" which (I think) is the default. Yeah, trying to open up a couple dozen tabs at once, several of which are videos, could be problematic.
