Many tabs - cause the computer to freeze on individual pages

[MrAccident]

The problem was actually solved by discovering it, but I'd like to understand it and to post the solution - for whoever will have the same problem.
I recently installed Bionic-Pup-64 - and had these kinds of problems; which lead me to think that the problem is with not enough RAM (2G). But it turned out that this is the main problem.
I use Pale Moon; and I mainly used a session with ~200 tabs. While almost no tabs were loaded ― on different specific pages ― the whole computer started to freeze; pages like: FaceBook, YouTube, Google-Docs. So finally I tried to open the same pages ― starting from one tab ― and the CPU didn't shoot up. It seems that the CPU rises - but much less.
The sessions themselves ― loaded quickly, and no other problems. So how can alot of tabs - influence single pages?

Wow, 200 tabs I thought 20 was a lot of tabs to keep open.

I use SeaMonkey in Fatdog64 and, even with 16 GB of RAM, when I get to 15 tabs or so, the response to keyboard and mouse inputs slows a lot. I don't really know why. I suspect it's because the CPU, an AMD A4-7300, is being maxed out.

[MrAccident]

@Flash - you mean 15 LOADED tabs? The 200 were not loaded.

BTW - it seems that with Opera ― it's the same story with the freezing. And with a few tabs. (but I probably won't use it anyway)

Yes palemoon uses a lot of RAM when many tabs are open.
That's why I use chromium for many tabs, because it uses less RAM.

Check Pale Moon preferences->Tabs->Don't load tabs until selected

Why would you want 200 tabs.
That is the purpose of bookmarks.

[MrAccident]

@bigpup - the tabs aren't loaded!

That is the purpose of bookmarks.

That's an idea; I already see how it'll be much more convenient in some aspects, but not all. If there could be bookmarks per session; otherwise - I'll end up with a million bookmarks at once. BTW - how heavy will loading the bookmarks be?

[Semme]

Go ahead...
create a MONSTER!

[MrAccident]

@bigpup - thinking about it some more, and seeing how I create the tabs in the first place ― bookmarks are probably not suitable. I learn alot of different subjects, which branch-out to more specific queries - which I open immediately in new tabs; and they all need to be in relative order. And to order bookmarks ― requires extra work. So best that I'll just divide the sessions as much as I can.

[Semme]

Using any of these?

[MrAccident]

@Semme - only Tab Mix Plus; why?

[Semme]

No particular reason. I just thought you might discover one or two that better fit your 200+ style.

[MrAccident]

@Semme - I didn't.

Damn, I forgot that alot of the times - when the freezing happens ― there is an Unresponsive Script message.

It still happens; but less frequent, and less intense. I still have 30 tabs.

[Semme]

When you know which of your sites are functional enough *without* JS, blacklist'em!

Facebook? Not one of'em >> https://tools.pingdom.com/#5caa9ea5a6c00000

The above is a "request" example.

[MrAccident]

@Semme - probably non of the usual. But again - it's OK now; and I'll try to reduce the sessions further, in the future.

[Semme]

Here we go, key-combos are a motor skill every power user should master.

[MrAccident]

@Semme - I don't understand the connection to the problem. And I probably know all of them.

[Semme]

Since we were on the subject of tabs I thought I'd interject - a shameless plug.

I'd also venture to guess that most average users don't know what they're miss'in by not using key-combos.
