en Nice extension to have but it bugs out sometimes (doesn't auto-hibernate some tabs) and it lacks a button on the right-click menu.

en OK, but you can't wake up local files open as tabs. The only way to restore them is to open the file again. ETA: after choosing to disallow a site from hibernating, you can't go back and allow it again. I'm sorry, this extension needs some work. It's not a keeper.

Please for the love of God, don't install this! The extension doesn't auto wake on edge and also I had 1000 tabs, the wake up all hibernated tabs button doesn't work! Wasted an entire day because I used this extension!

Does what it says it will do... kind of. The unfreeze all won't work, and the functionality for setting it for a certain site or not is restricted to one single window i have open. tons of tabs everywhere and this isn't cutting it. had to manually go through and free up all the tabs (unfreeze them). thank goodness the extension saves the urls in a format that if i had to dump it and free them all by cutting and pasting urls i could do it, but still. Think there's major conflicts with OneTab. Over all nice idea, but wish it worked the way it was intended. {RUNNING Lenovo Chomebook}
