Chrome quietly eats RAM tab by tab, and the default Task Manager gives you zero clue. Tab Memory Manager fixes that. It shows a live memory estimate per tab right in your toolbar, surfaces the biggest idle tabs, and lets you hibernate or close them β alone or in bulk β in one click. Also does tab grouping by domain and a floating memory pill if you want the number on every page. Zero servers. Zero tracking. Everything runs locally. Would love feedback from power tab-hoarders. π
Hey PH! π
I built this after Chrome's own Memory Saver kept putting the wrong tabs to sleep on me, and the built-in task manager was too clunky to actually act on.
The core loop I wanted: see the number β pick the offenders β free the memory β get on with my day. Under 30 seconds.
A few things I'm proud of:
β Hibernation keeps the tab alive in your strip (unlike closing)
β Smart suggestions skip pinned tabs, audio tabs, and domains you whitelist
β Memory estimates are clearly labeled as estimates (Chrome's stable API doesn't expose exact per-tab memory β that's a Chrome limitation, not a bug)
β Dark mode, no frameworks, opens in <100 ms
Happy to answer anything about how the memory numbers work, why I chose estimates over the exact Chrome API (spoiler: it only works on Dev/Canary builds), or anything else.
