Description from store

Tab Discard (Suspender) is an extension that lets you easily suspend either all inactive tabs or just the active tab by clicking on the toolbar button.

In principle, suspending tabs can reduce the browser memory and enhances your browsing experience. When you click on a suspended tab (make it active) it will be loaded with the previous content automatically.

This addon is useful when you have several open tabs, you can suspend them all (free up the memory) with just one click and then visit them one-by-one to unsuspend. This way, your browser will use the least amount of memory and have a better performance. Please right-click on the toolbar button and then select the desired option for suspending tabs (i.e. active or inactive tabs).

To report bugs, please visit the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/tab-discard.html) and fill the bug report form.

I tried a few of the featured tab suspenders, but none of them worked as described (verified through task manager), or they required an unnecessary extra click to reactivate a suspended tab. THIS extension actually does what it describes, one click and all inactive tabs go to sleep! My RAM usage with Chrome was constantly over 2,000mb, and now it drops below 600 MB. What a tool! Google should buy this program and implement it the default option for Chrome. It’s that good.

Moved here from The Marvellous Suspender as Google removed it for compliance reasons. Extension is working well so far. Can you add a scheduling feature that auto-suspends tabs after X period of time (5 min, 15 min etc.)? That would be amazing!

My company forces us to use Chrome and a recent update from them made chrome://discards/ unusable. This extension saved my life, a simple click and my computer can breathe again. 11/10

Good but not up to the mark. I am using your firefox addon too (https://mybrowseraddon.com/tab-discard.html?v=0.1.1&type=install). First your addon is outdated everywhere. Second, it suspends tabs automatically and doesnt ask which one to suspend and keep them suspended and which one not to (might be working on a sheet or doc or filing up a form). Third, if I view any tabs that you suspended automatically (add manual option like https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tiny-suspender/bbomjaikkcabgmfaomdichgcodnaeecf) then it automatically unsuspends itself. Then what's the point of using this addon if it unsuspends itself and when I open or reopen my browser, it consumes same resources especially on firefox. Also enable same theme as browser as white on dark theme doesnt match. Thanks. I loved your addon. Hoping to get better as wanted for firefox. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-discard-suspender/
