The Great Suspender Suspends Memory-Hungry Chrome Tabs You Haven't Used Lately

The Great Suspender Suspends Memory-Hungry Chrome Tabs You Haven't Used LatelyGoogle Chrome likes to use memory and give your processor a good workout if you keep a handful (or more) tabs open on a regular basis. This can have a negative impact on the speed of your computer, and certainly the life of your laptop's battery. The Great Suspender solves that problem by shutting those tabs down when they're not in use.

As pictured above, you can see The Great Suspender offers a number of manual options: suspend this tab, suspend all tabs, reload all tabs, and settings. The settings section is where things become particularly useful because you can automatically suspend tabs after a set number of minutes or hours. This way they won't eat up memory and add to Chrome's CPU usage in any way until you go back to them and load the page back up. It's be nice if Chrome had this feature by default, but fortunately it's an option through this third-party extension.
