    Chrome usage in windows 7 64 bit, memory - one tab open

    Just check the screenshot and do anyone of you got a clue of why so many chrome processes showing in Windows Task manager with just the one tab open? I have checked it often with one tab open and it remains same.

    lol and people hate Firefox for excess Memory usage. Chrome never worked as a stable browser for me till now, whenever I wanted to give it a fair try.

    Multi-process web browser will soon be the trend avi. Don't worry FF will follow chrome here also. This increases the security and stability of a browser. This softpedia article will help you understand better

    Arnab, I am aware of the Multi-process approach by Chrome. My whole point here was even with this multi-process approach, Google chrome is least stable (at least for me) and Always gives me one issue or the other whenever I want to give it a fair try.

    Firefox on the other hand is still much more stable for me compared to Chrome.

    That's why I use Firefox as my main browser and sometimes Opera. Both are stable and have extensions.

    Offcourse choices of browsers can vary but never faced any stability issues with either FF or chrome. Yes opera, when i have tried, was still buggy.
