I don’t believe it’s only chrome’s problem. I’ve noticed that firefox tends to lock all available memory to himself
and whenever I need it, bastard just reallocates it into swap, making whole system laggy and slow.
So… I’ve got my foxy friend into a Ram jail for being too hungry: systemd-run --scope -p MemoryMax=1G --user firefox
I use FF on Manjaro and have never noticed a ram problem. I’ve also got it set up on a different virtual linux machine with only 2 gigs of memory and it works fine.

Almost like its the websites that are wildly bloated and resource hungry and the browsers are just trying to display them as best they can
I’ve used Firefox in 1gb of ram. It was fine
I have never thought of this before, making a note. Because yeah, my FF has the same nast habit. Often using up 4+, 6+ or even more RAM.
