Raspberry 400

I believe that it is more correct to say "every tab is at least one separate process." I had Chromium and top both open yesterday. I had one tab open and brought up wunderground.com. There were 8-10 chromium-browser processes that suddenly popped up and remained persistent until I closed the browser. If you are not familiar with that website, it is a weather site with a lot of ads (non-pop-up).

Sorry that is true, I was just concentrating on the memory usable by single applications (I have a system test that uses over 6GB).

I don't think I've managed to get Chromium processes to use up all the memory even on my 4GB Pi 4B yet, I obviously need to try harder!

There's probably a process hanging on each open websocket.

Sure, it's a good multithreaded app. But I imagine there is ultimately one root process per tab that has to accumulate stuff from all the others and build the page as a monolithic data structure. I don't know.
