Chrome to solve its big RAM problem

A new feature in Microsoft’s May 2020 Windows update will allow Google to make substantial reductions to the amount of RAM that Chrome uses.

I'd sue Microsoft for anti competitive behavior if I was Google after reading this.

Memory down a black hole..

Are you people running a bet in the office to see who can use the word big in as many articles as possible?

Most commercial apps today are absolute mem hogs.

I put it down to the number/quality of developers, chip suppliers pushing sales, and general lack of savvy ...

Learn how a puter works, and fine tune it. Simple solution.

Memory is there to be used so I fail to see the big problem.

When you're running a couple of Docker images on your machine and run out of memory it becomes a big ****ing deal.
