For users overwhelmed by multiple open tabs in Google Chrome, 'The Marvellous Suspender' offers a practical solution. This Chrome extension automatically suspends inactive tabs, freeing up system resources and enhancing browser performance. The Marvellous Suspender is a fork of the original 'The Great Suspender,' redeveloped to address privacy concerns and continue providing the same functionality.
The Marvellous Suspender allows users to configure the behavior of active and inactive tabs. It can automatically suspend tabs after a specified period of inactivity, which can be adjusted in the settings. Users can also whitelist certain URLs to prevent them from being suspended. The extension includes features to manage suspended tabs efficiently, such as automatically reloading tabs when they are accessed again.
By suspending inactive tabs, The Marvellous Suspender helps reduce memory usage and improves overall system performance. This is particularly beneficial for users who frequently have numerous tabs open simultaneously. The extension is also useful for those looking for a privacy-focused alternative to similar tab management tools. Additionally, users migrating from 'The Great Suspender' can import their tab suspension data into The Marvellous Suspender.
To start using The Marvellous Suspender, users simply need to install it from the Chrome Web Store. Upon installation, the extension's settings page will open, allowing users to configure preferences such as the time before a tab is suspended and whether to use Chrome's built-in memory-saving features. Users can also manage their suspended tabs and import data from previous tab suspender extensions.
