With 6000 tabs open at the same time, Google Chrome eats up ... 1.5TB of Mac Pro RAM

Mac Pro is one of the most powerful machines on the market today. Besides the 28-core Intel Xeon chip, Radeon Vega II Duo GPU, 8TB SSD . then RAM capacity is also something that makes people "panicked" . Users can configure Mac Pro with up to 1.5TB of RAM, an unimaginable number that is even higher than the hard drive capacity of most users.

With the majority of current PC users still having a good deal of RAM with 8GB or 16GB, the question is what will they need to do to use up hundreds of times that amount of RAM? Youtuber  Jonathan Morisson  has  decided to challenge the Mac Pro with RAM 1.5TB of him with famous applications consume RAM: Google Chrome browser.

Jonathan started with 2000 tabs. Now Chrome uses 75GB of RAM.

2000 tab - 75GB RAM.

Adding 2000 tabs, Chrome consumes more than 50GB of RAM.

4000 tabs - 126.9GB RAM.

Only 1/10 of RAM is available, so Jonathan keeps opening 1,000 more tabs. At this time, Chrome occupies 170GB of RAM.

5000 tabs - 170GB RAM.

1,000 more tabs, Chrome is having problems right now. This browser freezes and takes up all system resources. Not only does it use up all 28 cores of Intel Xeon chips,  Google Chrome also consumes 1.4TB of RAM !!!!

After being suspended, Chrome's RAM capacity "ballooned" uncontrollably.

So what is the lesson here? No matter how big your computer is, Chrome will find a way to use up all the RAM you have. Also, opening too many tabs at the same time is easy to cause the browser to crash, so make it a habit to close the tabs after using them!
