Extension | Chrome 42.0.2311.152 m | Session Buddy 3.4.6 |
---|---|---|
None | FAIL | FAIL |
FooTab 13.3.5 | OK/FAIL (Reloads focused tab of each window.) | FAIL |
Lazy Tabs 0.2.1 | OK (Focused tabs look ugly but don't reload.) | FAIL |
ntlazytab 1.0 | OK (Focused tabs look ugly but don't reload. Opens https://www.facebook.com/nhtera on first enable.) | FAIL |
Also enabled: The Great Suspender 6.14 but that was set to 1 hour. Temporarily setting that to less than 5 minutes might enable restoring large sessions from Session Buddy.
Firefox with optional Session Manager is breezing through 1000+ tabs right now, twice Chrome's total tabs it keeps crashing on trying to restore in misguided attempt to speed things up. uBlock Origin may be helping to keeping bloaty ads away so Firefox won't choke.
