arekxv10548yYou can always switch back to Firefox (also known as CrashFox )... you can switch memory consumption with insane processor usage... so I guess take your pick. :)
Opera? Opera runs on Webkit now... so basically another Chrome... -
kileak6238yUse Firefox for development, Opera for general browsing.
I can't live without Firebug nowadays anyway, and Opera is ridiculously fast. -
pundit658ySwitching to Chrome Canary solved a few memory issues for me this week. I assume the stable release had a few dramas.

DarkRaist18y@Jase I'll try Vivaldi, I'm very frustrated with chrome and it's ram usage... I have some clients who have low end laptop and chrome is just killing it... I'll update what my findings with Vivaldi

DarKneT13168y@Jase I've tried Vivaldi early days ( beta or something ) it wasn't that impressive, i guess i should try again

DarKneT13168y@Jase well i use chrome mainly because of the developer tools, is just awesome, pretty much everything you need in a workflow is there.
and should be able to handle lots of tabs, and multiple profiles.
and should support extensions like adblock, json view, style bot etc etc -
It takes 250 MB RAM here with 10 tabs that stream YouTube 1080p60 videos open. "Much RAM consumption"? Not here.
Dear, google chrome browser. Please stop taking up so much RAM. You are a browser not a game. Worst browser ever.
