I work with +100 tabs all the time, and Firefox just manages it way better (both management and RAM consumption). if Chrome were to ever update their tab management to be Firefox-alike, I'd probably switch. 1 Link to comment

I can't stand having more than 1tab open if it's not super important/I need it right away. Lol 100tabs.. That must be exaggerated!! (At least I hope so!) 1 Link to comment

mapper Posted January 2, 2016 Content Count: 1563 Joined: 08/03/09 Status: Offline Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) I use Google Chrome for speed. My 16GB RAM can take easily 30+ tabs. But I usually only need 10 EDIT: I tried it with 50 open tabs with all a different youtube video open. This was the result: I'm suprised it didn't take as much as expected.

Lol 100tabs.. That must be exaggerated!! (At least I hope so!) I am working on A LOT of different things at the same time, closing tabs is no option, because I can't remember every solution/task for everything I am doing. Favoriting them is also not an option as I'll just leave them sitting there forgotten I use Google Chrome for speed. My 16GB RAM can take easily 30+ tabs. But I usually only need 10 EDIT: I tried it with 50 open tabs with all a different youtube video open. This was the result: I'm suprised it didn't take as much as expected. That is because you loaded 1 same domain which uses the same skin/scripts on every other page it generates. If you have that amount of tabs all different websites, it would preload everything into the ram, causing it to use WAY more, and also not every website it optimised as youtube, which also plays a big role in that subject Link to comment

I end up just either using bookmark bar... or since google remembers everything if i type like 2 letters into the search bar it pops up what i need.. and I'll have what I need up in 1second I would go crazy if I had a browser like @mapper posted Link to comment

On a sidenote to all others that really like Firefox but complain that it is extremely slow nowadays, you can try Waterfox, which is a fork of Firefox, but optimized for speed. Link to comment
