As a developer and blogger, I leverage Google Chrome daily to navigate, code, and investigate. Regularly operating dozens of tabs is part of my routine, however, I acknowledge it consumes memory and can result in a slower browser and machine.

Well, now there is a solution for that, let's explore.

What is The Great Suspender?

The Great Suspender is a valuable tool that allows you to suspend unused or inactive tabs, effectively saving memory. Any tab that remains inactive for the default value of 5 minutes will be suspended, substantially reducing memory usage.

The process is not permanent, and you can easily recover the suspended tabs either by clicking on the suspended page or using a keyboard shortcut (SHIFT+CTRL+S for Windows, SHIFT+COMMAND+K for Mac).

Additionally, the extension offers customizable settings for the suspending behavior, which you can access by clicking on the extension icon.

The Pros

  • Easy to use
  • Minimal configuration
  • Saves your RAM

The Cons

  • Can not exclude tabs, it applies to all tabs
  • Requires clicks to reactivate the page, which means many clicks

Conflicting Rating and Comments

While many users are happy, many reported the app is sluggish, and glitchy, some did not configure the app, and expected it to run on its own which it does not.

The app is free to use, with a twist

The App access your browser history, and it is free but not open-source.
