About Tab Memory Optimizer
Reclaim gigabytes of RAM by automatically suspending tabs you are not using.
Every open tab silently eats up your computer memory. Tab Memory Optimizer puts idle tabs to sleep using Chrome native discard engine — freeing up RAM instantly without losing your place,
your tabs, or your browsing state.
Click a sleeping tab, and it wakes up immediately right where you left it.
WHY TAB MEMORY OPTIMIZER?
Unlike older tab suspenders that replace your web pages with heavy placeholder screens or alter your URLs, Tab Memory Optimizer uses Chrome built-in memory management API.
- Your tab positions, favicons, and URLs never change.
- Zero cluttered screens or broken back/forward history.
- Lightning-fast instant restore the moment you focus a tab.
