Extension summary
The extension allows you to control the consumption of computer memory. If free memory is less than the selected value, the extension automatically unloads tabs from RAM. At the same time, the tabs do not close and you can always return to them. When you open such a tab, the browser will automatically load the content.
The extension does not close the tabs in which the sound is playing and the active tab. Also, the extension ignores sites from the ignore list. You can select any number of sites that you do not want to unload from memory, even if the memory is less than required. But it should be borne in mind that in critical situations, the browser will automatically unload all inactive tabs, regardless of the extension.
Unloading tabs occurs in stages. First, the tabs that the user has used for a long time are unloaded. If there is still not enough memory, the extension will continue to unload on a first-come, first-served basis.
