chrome processes - ToeCrusher - Apr 16, 2018
hi there,
I have three tabs open in chrome,when i open my task manager,i could see the chrome process using upto 45% of my memory,which is ridiculous,i have 16 Gigs of RAM.Furthermore the chrome itself has 13 sub-processes as in the screenshot below.How can i solve this abnormal behaviour?
Thanks

You're definitely not infected. Just bunch of shit plugins taking up memory running in background. Chrome also has a few processes by itself anyways

Id start by right clicking the one with the most memory and end all processes that will kill everything, then reopen chrome and uninstall those shit plugins, keep adblocker but the rest can go, and just try to limit the amount of shit you have open in chrome i guess if its taking that much memory, you might need more ram.
