Discards tabs that are inactive for 3 minutes to free up memory, while still preserving the tabs state when you click on them again.
Simple Discard Tab Extension
When you focus/click on a tab, the tab's contents will immediately load up again.
If you hover over the toolbar icon, the tooltip will tell you how many tabs were discarded in the last pass. For example, it will show \"(4/9)\" to mean 4 tabs were recently discarded out of a total of 9 running tabs. Tabs previously discarded are not included in the total count.
This extension requires no special permissions to run, so use it in confidence.
If you enable the \"read browser history\" permission, you can enable a whitelist to choose which website domains should never be discarded.
