About Suspend Tabs at Startup

This extension will automatically invoke the browser's Memory Saver feature to prevent tabs from loading when they are restored, without disrupting your browsing session. If you keep lots of tabs open, this can prevent resource allocation to tabs you will not use. Each tab will load when activated. Limitation: The first tab in the window may be unaffected.
