GOOGLE is working on a new feature which will be a tab-hoarders dream.
The feature will help Google Chrome users, who often have multiple tabs open, choose which ones to close.

It will help web users choose by showing them exactly how much memory each tab is using.
Having lots of tabs open can slow down internet and computer speeds.
So it’s always good to a have a purge every now and then when you notice your computer lagging.
The tech giant is reportedly still developing the feature, according to news site Android Police.
The amount of memory each tab is using is expected to pop up when Chrome users run their cursor along the tab.
Google is also reportedly working on a new feature for Chrome which will allow users to erase the last 15 minutes of browsing data on Android.
The company is constantly updating its services, especially Google Chrome – which is used by more than 2.6billion people everyday.
Just last month, the technology giant rolled our the Memory and Energy Saver modes.
This Memory Saver mode automatically “frees up memory from inactive tabs” to give other pages and apps on users’ computers more resources.
While Energy Saver “conserves battery power by limiting background activity and visual effects”.
