| I don't use bookmarks.  Ever.  Removing obsolete bookmarks is too much
| work, and tehre is no convinient one click 'add to bookmarks' either.

Bookmarks are like files, open tabs are like emacs buffers.  Each has
their uses and quirks.

| I expect my browser to not be wasting tons of rtam because a page is open.

Yeah, me too.  But our expectations are not fulfilled.

Perhaps browsers should have a concept of suspended tabs: ones that
consume almost no resources.

Under firefox, have a look at about:memory.

At the moment,

is taking 58 MB of RAM and I don't even have a facebook account or
visit it.
