您是否曾经在运行Google Chrome时在计算机上打开(Google Chrome)任务管理(Task Manager)器,查看浏览器在后台保持打开多少进程?即使您只打开了两个或三个选项卡,您也会在任务管理器(Task Manager)中看到更多的 Chrome 条目。所有这些都代表与您的浏览器相关的进程。
了解Chrome运行这么多进程是优势还是劣势,以及如何减少这些进程的数量。
如何在任务管理器中检查 Chrome 的进程(How to Check Chrome’s Processes in Task Manager)
任务管理器(Task Manager)对于任何用户来说都是必不可少的工具,它可以帮助您提高计算机性能或解决操作系统中的许多问题。有多种方法可以在Windows和Mac中打开任务管理器(multiple ways to open Task Manager)。但是,您可以在Google Chrome中打开任务管理(Task Manager)器以仅查看 Chrome 当前正在运行的进程。
要在您的计算机上打开任务管理器(Task Manager),请按照以下步骤操作。
- 打开 Chrome 浏览器。
- 选择屏幕右上角的三个点以打开 Chrome 的菜单(Menu)。
- 从菜单中,选择更多工具(More Tools)>任务管理器(Task Manager)。在 Windows 中,您还可以使用键盘快捷键(keyboard shortcut) Shift + Esc打开任务管理器。
这将在Google Chrome中打开任务管理(Task Manager)器,因此您可以看到活动Chrome进程的列表。
Chrome 运行多个进程是一件坏事吗? (Is Chrome Running Multiple Processes a Bad Thing? )
任务管理器(Task Manager)为何显示如此多的Chrome进程的秘诀在于该浏览器的工作方式。Google Chrome会创建三种类型的进程:选项卡(针对您打开的每个选项卡)、渲染器和插件。对于您使用的每个额外选项卡或扩展程序,Chrome都会创建一组单独的操作系统进程,所有进程都同时运行。
这种多进程架构是一种独特的Google Chrome功能,它允许您的浏览器不依赖于每个单独进程的工作来运行。如果特定进程冻结或停止工作,其他进程不会受到影响,因此您可以继续在Chrome中工作。同时运行多个进程也使Chrome响应更快。
同时,一些用户发现这个问题,并寻找一种方法来减少Chrome打开的进程数量。好消息是,有不止一种方法可以做到这一点。
如何减少 Chrome 运行的进程数(How to Reduce the Number of Processes that Chrome Runs)
您可以使用以下几种方法来减少Chrome打开的进程数量。您可以选择其中一种方法或尝试所有方法。
关闭后台进程(Turn Off Background Processes)
您可以做的第一件事就是禁用 Chrome 在后台运行的进程。为此,请打开Google Chrome,然后打开菜单并按照路径设置(Settings)>高级(Advanced)>系统(System)。禁用Google Chrome 关闭时继续运行后台应用程序(Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed)选项。
禁用 Google Chrome 附加组件和扩展程序(Disable Google Chrome Add-Ons & Extensions)
活动Chrome进程的数量还取决于您在浏览器中安装的附加组件和扩展程序的数量。(add-ons and extensions)禁用它们将帮助您显着减少活动进程的数量。
您不必一次摆脱所有的附加组件和扩展。从您每天不使用的那些开始。打开Chrome菜单并按照路径More Tools > Extensions。找到您想要摆脱的扩展并切换它们旁边的开关以禁用扩展。
Google Chrome扩展程序和附加组件可以改善您的用户体验,并允许您访问(Google Chrome)Chrome中无法使用的功能。但是,它们也消耗了大量资源。如果在禁用扩展程序后您意识到不再需要它们,最好卸载它们。
在扩展程序列表中,选择删除以从(Remove)Google Chrome中删除扩展程序。
在 Google Chrome 中手动结束进程(Manually End Processes in Google Chrome)
手动删除额外的进程也可以帮助您保留资源。您可以通过Google Chrome中内置的任务管理器(Task Manager)来执行此操作。为此,请按照以下步骤操作。
- 打开 Chrome 的菜单(Menu )(屏幕右上角的三个点)。
- 选择更多工具(More Tools)。
- 选择任务管理器(Task Manager)。
- 找到您要删除的进程并选择End Process。您一次可以停止多个进程。为此,请按住Shift(对于 Windows)或Command(对于Mac)键,然后选择列表中的多个条目并选择End Process。
请记住(Bear),结束进程将关闭与其关联的选项卡。确保只结束有问题并导致浏览器速度变慢的非必要进程,例如冻结的选项卡或延迟的扩展程序。否则,您最终会禁用Chrome,并且必须重新启动浏览器。
清除浏览器的缓存和 Cookie(Clear Your Browser’s Cache & Cookies)
定期清除缓存和 cookie 是一种预防措施,您可以采取这种措施来防止浏览器过载和占用过多资源。保存在Chrome(Chrome)中的临时文件可能会导致您当前的浏览会话出现问题。
您可以按照路径History > Show Full History > Clear browser data 清除浏览(Clear browsing data)器的缓存(clear your browser’s cache)。确保勾选所有框:浏览历史记录(Browsing history)、Cookie 和其他站点数据(Cookies and other site data)以及缓存的图像和文件(Cached images and files)。选择时间范围并选择清除数据(Clear data)。
让您的浏览器更高效(Make Your Browser More Efficient)
默认情况下,谷歌浏览器(Google Chrome)会为每个新标签、渲染器、插件或扩展打开一个单独的进程。避免Chrome打开过多进程的一种明显方法是在浏览器中保持更少的标签页打开。养成在使用完毕后关闭不再需要的 每个选项卡的习惯。(close every tab)

Why Does Chrome Have So Many Processes Running?
Have you ever opened Task Manager on your computer while rυnning Google Chrome to see how many proceѕses the browser keeps open in the background? Even if you only have two or three tabs open, you’ll see many more Chrome entries in the Task Manager. All of them represent the proceѕses associated with your browser.
Find out whether Chrome running so many processes is an advantage or a disadvantage, as well as how to reduce the number of these processes.
How to Check Chrome’s Processes in Task Manager
Task Manager is an essential tool for any user that can help you improve your computer’s performance or troubleshoot a number of issues in your operating system. There are multiple ways to open Task Manager in Windows and Mac. However, you can open Task Manager in Google Chrome to see only the processes that Chrome’s currently running.
To open Task Manager on your computer, follow the steps below.
- Open the Chrome browser.
- Select the three dots in the upper-right corner of your screen to open Chrome’s Menu.
- From the menu, select More Tools > Task Manager. In Windows, you can also use the keyboard shortcut Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
This will open Task Manager in Google Chrome, so you can see the list of the active Chrome processes.
Is Chrome Running Multiple Processes a Bad Thing?
The secret to why Task Manager shows so many processes for Chrome is in how this browser works. Google Chrome creates three types of processes: tabs (for every tab you have open), renderers, and plug-ins. For every extra tab or extension you’re using, Chrome creates a separate set of operating system processes, all running simultaneously.
This multi-process architecture is a unique Google Chrome feature that allows your browser to not rely on the work of every single process to function. If a particular process freezes or stops working, the other processes won’t be affected so you can resume working in Chrome. Running multiple processes simultaneously also makes Chrome more responsive.
At the same time, some users find this problematic and look for a way to reduce the number of processes that Chrome opens up. The good news is, there’s more ways than one to do this.
How to Reduce the Number of Processes that Chrome Runs
Here are several ways that you can use to reduce the number of processes that Chrome opens. You can choose one of the methods or try all of them.
Turn Off Background Processes
One of the first things you can do is to disable processes that Chrome’s running in the background. To do that, open Google Chrome, then open the menu and follow the path Settings > Advanced > System. Disable the Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed option.
Disable Google Chrome Add-Ons & Extensions
The number of active Chrome processes also depends on how many add-ons and extensions you have installed in your browser. Disabling them will help you significantly reduce the number of active processes.
You don’t have to get rid of all of your add-ons and extensions at once. Start with the ones that you don’t use on a daily basis. Open the Chrome menu and follow the path More Tools > Extensions. Find the extensions that you want to get rid of and toggle the switch next to them to disable the extensions.
Google Chrome extensions and add-ons can improve your user experience and allow you to access functions otherwise unavailable in Chrome. However, they also eat up a lot of resources. If after you disable the extensions you realize that you don’t need them anymore, it’s better to uninstall them.
In the extensions list, select Remove to delete an extensions from Google Chrome.
Manually End Processes in Google Chrome
Manually removing extra processes can also help you preserve resources. You can do that via the Task Manager that’s built into Google Chrome. To do that, follow the steps below.
- Open Chrome’s Menu (three dots in the upper-right corner of the screen).
- Select More Tools.
- Select Task Manager.
- Find the process that you want to delete and select End Process. You can stop more than one process at a time. To do that, hold down the Shift (for Windows) or Command (for Mac) key, then select multiple entries on the list and select End Process.
Bear in mind that ending processes will close the tabs associated with them. Make sure to only end the non-essential processes that are problematic and causing your browser to slow down, like the frozen tabs or laggy extensions. Otherwise you’ll end up disabling Chrome and will have to restart the browser.
Clear Your Browser’s Cache & Cookies
Clearing cache and cookies regularly is a preventative measure that you can take to prevent your browser from overloading and using up too many resources. Temporary files saved in Chrome might be causing issues with your current browsing session.
You can clear your browser’s cache by following the path History > Show Full History > Clear browsing data. Make sure to tick all of the boxes: Browsing history, Cookies and other site data, and Cached images and files. Choose the time range and select Clear data.
Make Your Browser More Efficient
By default, Google Chrome opens a separate process for every new tab, renderer, add-on or extension. One obvious way to avoid Chrome opening too many processes is by keeping fewer tabs open in your browser. Make it a habit to close every tab that you don’t need anymore after you’re finished using it.
