First make sure Chrome is open and in focus (on top of other windows). Now press SHIFT+ESC. You&#8217;ll see Chrome&#8217;s task manager open. It will show you how much RAM and CPU resources each open tab and installed extension is using. And all are clearly labeled.<\/p>\n<p>c<span class=\"auto-style790\"><span class=\"auto-style747\"><span class=\"auto-style9\"><span class=\"auto-style7\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2017\/chrome-taskmanager.png\" alt=\"Cloudeight InfoAve Tips &amp; Tricks\" width=\"559\" height=\"219\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>If one of the open tabs or extensions seems to be using an excessive amount of resources, you can terminate the process (tab or extension) easily.
