Extension summary

The extension adds a button who closes Chrome and in the next opening only the active tab is fully loaded. For the others tabs just the icons and the titles is loaded, until you active the tab. So now Chrome loads really fast! Even if you are tabholic like me.

Notice: The lazy loading does not work with the browser close button, you need to use the button of the extension, I have to do this because the close button of Chrome does not fire a sycronus close event.

This is an open source project, developers and ideas are welcome: http://code.google.com/p/lazy-loading-chrome/
