Chrome Extension Puts Tabs To Sleep To Prevent Memory Drain

chrome_extensionChrome extensions are useful and can range from being novel to being full of functionality, like adding photographs to blank pages, or remembering your passwords like the LastPass extension, or prevent ads from showing up by using AdBlock, or even help make web browsing for the color-blind easier.

However as useful as the Chrome browser is for Google users, there are many complaints about it and one of them is that the browser is a bit of a memory drain, which is especially true for users who love to open tons of tabs and leave them open. If you have done this you might realize that your browsing experience becomes less than ideal.

The good news is that there is now an extension that will help manage your open tabs. Dubbed The Great Suspender, basically what this extension does is that it helps puts tabs to sleep where they’re essentially suspended anywhere between 20 seconds or up to 3 days, depending on what you plans to do with them.

This allows users to keep their tabs open in their browser without having to worry about what a drain it will be on their computer’s memory. Users can also whitelist certain websites so that these websites will remain open and functional no matter what. It’s an interesting extension but not the first of its kind, but if you’d like to check it out head on over to the Chrome Web Store for the download.
