When it comes down to Chrome's RAM usage, it can be a problem for users. It can slow down your computer or the entire system. That's because it uses a lot of memory. It consumes so much RAM because it splits every tab and extension into its process so that if one thing crashes, it will not affect the whole web page or all of your tabs at once. This makes Google Chrome a more convenient option for you. But it does lead to higher memory use since it has to duplicate some tasks for every tab.
