Chrome takes 100% Cpu on startup for several seconds

[DeadlyTitan]

So i have a pretty new system with

• i7 8700
• 32 GB Ram
• 1080 Ti
• 512 GB SSD Boot drive 

and chrome takes 100% cpu for several seconds on startup (as in starting the chrome) almost hanging my system in the process. Granted i run over 200+ tabs span across multiple instances of chrome with a dozen plugins/addons. I just wanted to know if its normal and is to be expected?

That happens to me as well (I have an i7 6700), but it really doesn't bother me.

Happens with me. I think it’s chrome just inefficiently handling how it opens the last session.

Yea it doesn't bother me either, not as long as it loads up all my pages nice and clean. I just wanted to know if its normal.

Thnx. I guess it'll take us an another decade to get HW capable enough to handle chrome

I use a fairly clean chrome that doesn't do that on my laptop. Under your usage scenario then it's normal for it to completely crash your PC though.

Curious to why you got the 8700 Non K variant with the rest of your hardware being top end spectrum.

 

otherwise Chrome is just a Ram and CPU hog on startup and the more tabs. When you add more ram into your computer and you hear wheezing, its not the computer its chrome.

Not an overclocker, just a happy to go lucky man, lives in a hot place so ambient temps are already too high to bother overclocking and temps on non K cpu are easier to control and personally didn't want to invest in additional cooling when the gain is only 10% at best. Just slap in my old and trusted hyper 212x from previous build and its all good to go. No need for stability testing and stress testing. Just install windows, download games and start playing and several other reasons that i forget.

You just need to be more organized and use organized bookmarks instead of leaving tabs open.

Well my work requires me to do a lot of strenuous research which does not grant me the luxury of having time to organize. I cannot afford to close those tabs only to come back squandering around trying to find the data i needed which happened to be in one of the tabs i have just closed. The work is just random so i cannot say which tab is safe to close and which is not. Its just going to create chaos for me, and the plugins i have are there to help me cut off the extra clutter from the web pages that just waste my time or annoy me with their glaring flashing ads, auto play videos, popup ads, scripts, trackers and all that crap that they put around in web pages nowadays.

You probably waste more time trying to find something in your 200 tabs than it would take to right click and make a new bookmarks folder......

You said "Just install windows, download games and start playing" but you also said "Well my work requires me to do a lot of strenuous research which does not grant me the luxury of having time to organize.  Something tells me that if you have time to download games and play, you also should have time to organize.  And with 200 plus tabs in Chrome I can understand why your system would belch every now and then.  Like the previous poster said, you probably spend more time looking thru the tabs for something than you do actually doing any work.  Just my humble opinion.....

Good Luck.

Not really though, its easy for me to pinpoint the exact tab i want and i usually open them in multiple instances with each instance holding its own tabs that belong to certain tasks. The tabs are big enough to identify them from their thumbnails/icons or whatever you call it and if i ever get lost, all i have to do is just hover my mouse around the tabs and read the names. Also i have a deeply organized bookmarks so its probably harder for me to bookmark on the go and then retrieve them. I usually have them in folders and sub folders like for example Games > game name > all the stuff belonging to that game, Articles > science/health/tech yada yada.

You can't even see the thumbnails with 200 tabs.

[AvocadosGuac]

Why are most of you trying to tell @DeadlyTitan how to use their pc?

 

Let the OP use chrome how they want to...

I play on the weekends is there a problem? I am already pretty worn out by work so i hate to do all the tweaking to the CPU settings which is reason I've gave him for going to a non K CPU. I dont like to waste my time on weekends, just boot up my system and play some games.

Really now? dude do you even read and comprehend? Only an idiot would run all the tabs in single chrome window. also its pretty readable in 4k, thnx by the way.

Playing is fine, no matter when it is, I'm just pointing out that you said you didn't have time to organize but you have time to play.  Nothing more, nothing less.  But, do you keep Chrome open with the 200 tabs while you're playing?  If so, then I would recommend that you close Chrome while playing.

Yes sorry if i sounded a little rude, i do take time to organize once a month when i bring my sorry ass to sort out the stuff that i am done with and no longer needed, which i have to do eventually. I hate it, its such a pain but i do eventually and slowly lol. Yes i do have chrome open all the time, even when am playing games and it doesn't really effect the performance once its done loading all it wants. Its the reason i went for 32 Gb ram, if only ram prices were not super high i would have gone for 64 GB.

Normal. You can try an extension that provides lazy loading that will prevent tabs from (re)loading unless you click them, like this one: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/lazy-tabs/aabgbgciohhaogajcnacpgilhmacdahc

Well, here it goes, an another plugin for my chrome. Thanks a lot.
