There is nothing bad. False positive.

Serious problems with v55.0.2900.1 when using multiple tabs. Tried to open 20+ (yes, I really like to work this way) tabs, at first it worked, until some "limit" reached and then everything went south.

I read you had some memory issues, this could be related. Anyway, processor went in high speed (fan started spinning like crazy), after waiting for some time I received info that tabs are unresponsive and if I want to kill them or wait. First I waited, didn't helped, then I killed them and opened them one by one (when you go to each tab you have reload button).

I reverted to last version I used before (50.0.2650.0), it is a bit old, but it works without this problem.

I'd like to use newer version, but I really need to open a lot of tabs and work with them without problems. Like v50.0.2650.0 does (and other browsers, of course). I hope this will be soon rectified.

On very small number of tabs, v55.0.2900.1 works fine as far as I can tell. So, please test it with numerous tabs.

could you try going to chrome://flags/ and set "Automatic tab discarding" to disbaled?

OK, I reinstalled latest version, tried first without changing anything. After about 11-12 tabs problem started. So you can easily try test in your system, it isn't that many tabs.

I then changed setting as per your advice, it didn't helped.

I noticed more symptoms (they were also present before, but I didn't reported them). First, everything slows down, mouse becomes unresponsive, when you click on new link, link doesn't change (hover effect doesn't happen for some time, like processor is too busy), when you try to see opened tab you meet blank screen for some time, like Iron needs some time to recreate it.

All in all, the more tabs, the problems are more pronounced.

It is something easily to reproduce, please try it yourself. I'm going back to older version. Hopefully you'll solve this really soon.

Well, really strange.

I'm back with old version (50.0.2650.0), just tried, it works fine, as I remember it does.

My system is win10 Pro 64bit, 8GB RAM, 240GB SSD for system, i7-4720HQ CPU. It is a notebook, but it should be able to run multiple tabs. Older version works without problems. I just noticed slight blank screen for a tenth of a second or less, barely noticeable, when switching tabs. With newer version Iron breaks. Other tasks work fine.

If you have 40 tabs open, this is strange. After 11 or 12 I start to have problems. The more I open, the worse situation gets. :(

Could you please start the Iron Task-Manager with Shift+Esc and watch which process/plugin/tab etc. may consume much CPU or RAM when opening more tabs?

First tab is showed as main problem, ram went to about 1GB, processor about 16%.

This is one screenshot how it looked like:

After some time things get sorted, but I didn't opened as much tabs as I do sometimes.

EDIT:
Maybe this is just problem with this webpage I use: http://slobodni.net/forum.php

Try there to open tabs and see what's going on. I use this web page with older version without problems.

EDIT2:

Just tested, on different site I can open more tabs without problems, but with this one site there are problems. Strange thing is, it works fine with old version.

Could you please avoid this page with the red icon and test with other pages if it runs here with many tabs?
