Google has introduced a new feature in its Chrome browser that allows users to easily monitor the Memory Usage of each open tab. This feature is particularly useful for managing multiple tabs simultaneously, especially websites that tend to consume more resources.
How to Use the Feature
To view the memory Usage of a tab, users simply need to hover their mouse cursor over the tab. A pop-up window will appear displaying the tab’s RAM usage in megabytes. Additionally, the pop-up will indicate whether Chrome’s Memory Saver feature has been activated for that particular tab.
Benefits of the Feature
- Allows users to identify memory-intensive tabs
- Provides a quick and convenient way to monitor browser resource usage
- Can help prevent slowdown or crashing
Other Chrome Features for Resource Management
- Energy saver: Limits background activity and visual effects to conserve battery power
- Tab prioritization: Prioritizes resource allocation to active tabs
Overall, the new Tab Memory Usage feature is a valuable addition to Chrome that can help users optimize their browsing experience.
