Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

Lightweight extension that reduces Chrome's memory usage by putting inactive tabs to sleep.

Using Chrome's built in tab discarding feature, when a tab is inactive or system memory critically low, the extension discards the background tabs freeing up memory.

Once you switch the focus to the sleeping tab, it gets automatically reloaded. Tabs playing audio or video won't be put to sleep.

=== Main Features===

Tabs are put to sleep when not in use for 10 minutes (the interval can be customized in the settings).

Tabs are put to sleep when system memory is low. The extension will set a default low memory threshold depending by the total amount of system memory. This value can be customized.

good extension but it still bugs when trying to open any link in a new tab. If this can be corrected, would be a great one

Yes This Plugin does free up memory. but if your browser stay active for a long time it somehow eat up more memory than before. my memory usage is 2.2GB before this plugin and 0.8 ~ 1.2GB after the plugin with the risk of eat up all the memory

Funcionou muito bem. Acredito até que isso deveria ser uma função do próprio Chrome

Leaving a bad review because the dev doesn't seem too polite in the reviews.

Works great, cut my chrome memory usage from 5 GB to 1.5 GB (trust me that's good by the standards of my lobotomized gaming laptop). Any problems the negative reviews mention have been fixed by now. Do be warned, it does reload all of your tabs at the same time upon installing which might cause memory usage to go up momentarily, but after that there have been no hiccups so far. Would be even better if there was a feature to choose specific tabs to not auto-close.

Works perfectly! I hope people realize that they should read the mechanics of how this extension works. By the way, maybe change the wording from "Discard all tabs" to "Put all tabs to sleep", it made me a bit confused at first!
