Because Chrome uses the tab sheet process design, when we use Chrome to open more than one tab to browse the Web page, the system memory footprint will also increase greatly. This is the problem that people often complain about too much of the chrome memory footprint. Thanks to Chrome's good scalability, there are a number of extensions that are specifically designed to reduce the footprint of chrome, and here are some of the two that you think are good:
1, Tab hibernation
No matter how many tabs we open, the page being read (that is, the active) is always one, while the other is an inactive label. Tab hibernation obviously also agree with this, when we install the tab hibernation, the extension bar will present a moon icon, click on it, all inactive tabs will automatically enter the sleep mode, which will effectively release memory and reduce memory footprint.

2. The Great suspender
Compared to the tab hibernation,the great suspender is more intelligent because it supports automatic mode: we can set a certain time period to let the great suspender automatically suspend the Inactive tab page. The extension itself offers a choice of 5 minutes to 12 hours at different intervals, and also supports adding whitelist to sites that do not need to be suspended permanently; Of course, we can also manually suspend an active or inactive page by extending the cute square header icon of the toolbar.

3, Onetab
Compared to the first two extensions, Onetab is more famous, but onetab in these three extensions is the worst, it reduces the memory footprint by shrinking all the tabs to a single window, which not only affects the current normal web browsing, and feels extremely poor in speed and efficiency, so it is not recommended.

4, Tabmem
Tabmem can automatically turn the Inactive tab pages into sleep mode for a certain amount of time so that they do not consume system memory resources. The tab page in sleep mode appears as a blank page, and the Color of the tab page changes. When you switch to this tab again, it will be activated again, but not a moment to live, but need to re-read the page, so the speed may be a bit slow, but always more than you close and then reopen faster.
