New version works very well, however sometimes on startup it gets control before tabs have loaded and therefor can't discard them on startup. When this happens, just click its icon to discard tabs.

Nice app. It works! I'm happy that this app uses ONLY ONE permission "Browser History", while other extensions use too much permissions. Thank you!

It works! This makes the Chrome browser useful and usable. Before lazy tabs I barely used Chrome. I used other browsers which built in lazy loading of tabs. I also like that you can click the icon and it will unload all but the current tab. A great memory saver!

Perfect, except it causes failure of a tricky form on a page I use often: <form method="post" action="/home.nsf/PRMENU?OpenForm&amp;Seq=1&amp;BaseTarget=_blank" name="_PRMENU" target="_blank"> <input type="hidden" name="__Click" value="852570C800185AE6.e4f5a7364d78a0df8525731f0020d0b1/$Body/0.C32"> <input name="PRNumber" value="" target="_blank" <input type="button" value="Go" onclick="return _doClick('852570C800185AE6.e4f5a7364d78a0df8525731f0020d0b1/$Body/0.C32', this, null)"> </form> Would be good if LazyTabs had a setting to disable for certain URLs or domains.

This seems to work properly for me, except a warning: it WILL prevent installing other Chrome extensions from the store unless you disable it when you try. It took me forever to figure out that it was this extension causing it.

The most useful extension for Chrome. I have a lot of tabs open, and this extension helps me minimise my energy consumption to keep battery alive x100 times longer.

Does not work. Still loads every tab previously opened upon launching Chrome. Skip this one.
