I wouldn't expect any browser now or in the future to be performant with that
many tabs open.
why not?
anyhow, the fact is that Safari performs fine until it stews for a few days; i
have often have 80 or more tabs, and my observation is that the more tabs, the
fewer days before Safari sucks the life out of everything and demands a
relaunch; i would relaunch more often but i have abysmally slow DSL, so
reloading lots of tabs is glitchy
Chrome does not have anything like Safari's creeping memory consumption
problems; i can keep a few dozen tabs open in Chrome session for weeks while
i'll have had to relaunch Safari several times; now and then a single tab runs
away with the CPU, but the Task Manager makes that easy to handle
It also sounds like a real usability hassle. I don't let myself keep more than
~8 open, regardless of browser - to conserve both memory and sanity.
8 would really cramp my style, but i don't presume my sanity and yours are
equivalent; browser tabs are part of my filing system
