Chrome on mac is SLOW

[TheMastr13]

Does anybody know why chrome is so slow on my mac? (lol its cuz its a mac). Safari is fine, and my internet speeds are awesome (screenshot below), so it just doesn't make sense. Does anybody else have this issue?

 

My system: Macbook Pro retina, Late 2013, i5 8gb RAM

 

I hope someone as a fix, because safari is boring.

Check your RAM usage. Also, make sure that you don't have like 10+ extensions running.

My ram gets low a lot, but never REALLY low. lemme disable some extensions. I think that might work (i have a lot of extensions.

Safari is way faster than Chrome, and exceptionally lighweight and well-optimized.

 

Just see those JS benchmarks ;_;

I like how its a lot more lightweight, but chrome is nice because it syncs flawlessly across computers

So does safari, if you have Apple devices

 

I'd say use Firefox instead of chrome, as it also syncs and is way better. It's what I use on Windows.

Wow. I had the extension ABP running and when I turned it off the result was instantaneous. thanks for the suggestion!
