In the Task Manager, while using Facebook, the memory being used by Chrome becomes huge, like one process is over one million K. They are usually about 60,000 K or less.
This happens if I'm scrolling through a photo album with a lot of photos. You'd think thumbnails wouldn't require so much. Maybe some photos are being partially loaded at full size?
Do you often see a chrome process get so huge??
There have been complaints of slowness and people see "3-edge-chat facebook" at the bottom. (Sometimes the 3 is a different number.) That has different solutions, including going to Facebook Settings > Ads and turning off ads based on your visits. Some users say this doesn't help. Other articles suggest other things.
