Yes, the issue for me (besides any slow down) is if I have 10 Web browser windows with 10 tabs how can I quickly find the one tab that I am looking for?
On most (all?) browsers I only sees the title of the selected tab in the Windows list. I just need to see a list of all titles or a visualisation of all tabs for all windows. Is there any plugin in any browser that would do this? Cheers, Ashley. PS Of course, Chrome's one process per tab is also a tradeoff (processes have overhead etc). I try and put up with Safari's run-time architecture because of its standout features (UI, Reader, excellent printing).
