Google’s next major Chrome update will reduce RAM consumption by up to 50%

[Guest Zach Epstein]

Chrome is feature-rich, fast and extremely versatile thanks to a terrific ecosystem of third-party extensions. Other browsers from Microsoft's Edge to Mozilla's Firefox have been gaining in certain areas recently, but no other software offers the all-around experience Chrome affords. Of course, nothing is perfect and that goes for Google's web browser, too. As anyone who uses Chrome knows, it can be a huge memory hog, especially for users who leave multiple tabs open all the time. There's good news to be had, though: An update is coming that should have a dramatic impact on resource consumption.
