Proof that it is better? What has firefox to offer in Extentions like Steam helper, Session buddy...

The only proof I have that is legitimate without causing a stir is I have used IE, Edge, Chrome, Opera, Chromium, and Firefox. I still prefer Firefox as my daily driver as far as web browsers go. This is just real world examples from me solely, and you may have to consider different browsers according to your needs.

 

You can either send in a report to Google and expect them to fix what you request, or find alternatives.

I often see Chrome doing this when I use the same window without closing it for days and weeks.  I can have multiple or just one tab, but for some reason as time passes I think google is storing other history with the page.  I've actually pinned the tabs, closed the window, re-opened Chrome, unpinned the tabs and noticed a drop in CPU and memory usage.  You CANNOT just close and restore, as it will bring back whatever history data was in the cache.  There have been times where it did not improve as much as I thought it would, but that happens usually when I have pages that include things like heavy java or flash, etc.

I run multiple browsers.  While they have many similarities and functions, they are not the same.  Depending on the content I may use Opera, Chrome, Firefox, and even Edge.  I primarily use Chrome for most of my browsing, but I tend to fall back to Firefox for some items.  Firefox only shows as 1 Process, so If I'm looking at pages that I know give issues and can impede browsing, then I kill the process and all Firefox items shut down.  Google doesn't list the individual items in the process list.  It'd be nice if there was some association as to the tabs or extensions in the task manager, but alas, until that happens, I run multiple browsers.
