When I open my webpage in a Chrome tab, it uses around 750 MB of RAM. (I have check the usage in Chrome's task manager.) I am using Windows 7.

When I open the same webpage in 8 tabs, then the total RAM usage of my system is 6.27 GB.

I have checked the RAM usage of other webpages such as youtube.com, but it uses 180 MB of RAM (average). Can any one tell me how I can reduce this RAM usage. Is there any way to find out problems by using Chrome profiling?

I'm using Windows 7.

    capture trace of the memory usage grow of Chrome with xperf: http://pastebin.com/gR0eGqrX compress the file and share the compressed file – magicandre1981 Aug 20 '15 at 15:22
  • not a duplicate of http://superuser.com/q/413349/10259 because that question asks how to set a limit on RAM usage and this question asks how to reduce the actual problem, not just set a limit – danielcg Aug 20 '15 at 15:30
  • What extensions do you have installed? What happens if you disable a few or all of them? – Chin Aug 20 '15 at 16:17
