- Voila!
Hello, my friend, how are you? Do you happen to know it the --renderer-process-limit switch still works? On my current Chromium version I notice no change in behavior, still 9 "renderer" processes popping up at startup. Is there another switch to manually override the Chromium RAM detection to specify a lower memory usage? I'm having problems with sudden memory explosions being paged to swapfile.
