chrome taking too much processes - Crak3r2 - Aug 18, 2015
hey
i would like to know if it is normal for chrome to be taking up multiple processes at the same time for each tab i open on chrome it seems to consume more processing power and i don't understand is this normal or what because i dont seem to get the same problem with other browsers

It's most probably cause you're using multiple plugins for your browser.

well yes i am using multiple plugins however i blieve that they may be something more because every time i open a new tab 2 new processes appear in the task manager which is utilizing alot of RAM and i dont like that looks like ill have to remove the plugins

Each tab in chrome runs as a separate process to prevent the entire browser from crashing if one thread crashes. This is normal.

It takes too much if you're using a lot of plugins.

Google Chrome is know to hog resources too, if it's using too much in your personal opinion, try switching browsers.

If you have much ram, you don't have to worry.

Switch to chromium is an easy way to lower the amount of ressources used if im right ?
At least it work for me, im using at least -30%, and i kept my settings ;)
