Google Chrome's New Update: Smarter Memory Management for All

Google Chrome's latest update promises better control over memory usage with an enhanced Memory Saver feature. While some users think Chrome is a memory-guzzler, recent tests suggest otherwise. The new version offers three memory-saving modes: Moderate, Balanced, and Maximum. Each mode handles inactive tabs differently, freeing up memory for active tasks. If you're a tab-hoarder, this feature is a lifesaver, especially when keeping memory-heavy sites like Gmail or YouTube open.
Inactive tabs can be added to a keep-alive list or marked for easy identification. Curious about a tab's memory usage? Hover over it for a quick glimpse. This update is now available in the stable channel. Installing Chrome on Ubuntu is a breeze: download the DEB, use App Center, and future updates will happen alongside Ubuntu's.
