Google has updated the Memory Saver feature in Chrome to offer users better insight into the memory usage by each tab that’s currently open in the browser. It is no surprise that Chrome consumes a lot of memory and Google has taken several steps to contain that resource-hungry nature of the browser by introducing features like Power saver, a Memory saver that puts the tabs to sleep when inactive for a certain period.
Recently, Google updated Chrome to show the memory consumption data for each tab. This means, Chrome will let users know how much memory each tab or let’s say each website is currently using and they can use this to reduce the overall load from the system by closing them, in case they don’t need those tabs anymore.
However, for this to work, certain things need to be done. For instance, users need to enable Chrome’s Memory saver feature. In this guide, we will give you a step-by-step guide on how to enable the feature and also how they can check the memory usage of each website.
