不可否认,Chrome有时会占用大量资源,因此我们创建了本指南来帮助您减少Chrome
的资源密集度。
这些技巧将帮助您减少Chrome对CPU的压力,并最大限度地减少浏览器使用的内存 ( RAM )。希望(Hopefully)无论Chrome是在前台还是在后台运行,遵循这些提示都将有助于提高性能。
我们将从查看 Google 建议的优化技巧开始,然后我们将分享一些鲜为人知的工具。
优化谷歌浏览器的步骤
我们的第一个建议是安装最新的Google Chrome更新。这可能包括针对与您当前硬件的潜在不兼容性的新优化和修复。
要更新 Google Chrome,请单击右上角的三个点(click the three dots)。在底部,将鼠标悬停在“帮助”上( hover over ‘help’),然后点击“关于 Google Chrome”。(click ‘About Google Chrome’.)
这会将您带到一个页面,您可以在其中查看是否需要更新Chrome。
如果有可用更新,您会在此处收到通知,并且您可以更新Chrome。
检查Chrome是否已更新后,您现在可以转到Chrome的内置任务管理器。这个菜单是大多数人不知道的,它可以帮助你减少Chrome的内存和CPU使用率。
要访问任务管理器,请单击右上角的三个点(click the three dots)。将鼠标悬停在“更多工具”( ‘more tools’)上,然后选择“任务管理器”( ‘task manager’)。在任务管理器中,您将能够查看Chrome中哪些应用和标签页使用最多的内存和(Chrome)CPU
能力。
你可能会对这里的一些用法感到惊讶。例如,我在后台有Google Drive选项卡,它使用了 430MB 的RAM,而我什至没有使用它。您可以在此处关闭应用程序和选项卡或关闭任务管理器,然后手动结束它们。
一般 Chrome 维护技巧
除了这两个提示之外,更清楚您一次打开了多少个标签可以帮助 Chrome 减少资源密集型。每个标签对你的表现都有自己的影响,所以 10
或更多选项卡只会将您的 PC 的压力增加十倍。
如果您想进一步减轻压力,您可以通过下载独立软件将您在Chrome之外使用的应用程序。(Chrome)例如,选择Word、写字板(WordPad),甚至是桌面版的Google Drive,而不是使用Chrome。
您也可以使用Spotify而不是YouTube来播放音乐。考虑对所有内容使用独立应用程序,以免Chrome占用大量内存,并记得在不使用这些应用程序时关闭它们。
删除扩展程序或病毒
您可以通过访问 chrome://settings/cleanup找到安装在Chrome浏览器上的可能有害的应用程序或扩展程序。(Chrome)
在某些情况下,您的 PC 上可能已安装了恶意扩展,上面显示的此页面将为您删除它们。恶意扩展程序可能会弹出广告或使其他进程在后台运行,从而增加Chrome对您 PC 的压力。
有时,非恶意扩展也会对 Chrome 的性能产生重大影响。要检查您的扩展程序并删除您不需要的扩展程序,请访问 chrome://extensions/ 并考虑删除您不需要的扩展程序。
您可能会发现安装了一些您甚至从未使用过的扩展程序,这些扩展程序可能在后台运行。如果你不确定某个特定的扩展可能会对你的性能产生什么影响,可以参考我们前面提到的任务管理器。扩展名也会出现在那里。但是,您需要从扩展页面中删除它们。
使用(Use)扩展来管理性能
删除不需要的扩展后,去安装更多可能看起来违反直觉,但有一些扩展可以提高性能。我们在下面挑选出人们可能不知道的三个。所有这些都旨在帮助监控和减少
Chrome对您的 PC 造成的压力。
一个标签(OneTab)
OneTab是一个Chrome扩展程序,可以将所有打开的选项卡移动到一个列表中。然后,您可以随时使用该列表重新打开或关闭选项卡。该列表不会对您的性能产生太大影响,并且比打开所有这些选项卡并在后台运行要好得多。
标签牧马人(Tab
Wrangler )
Tab Wrangler是另一种选择,专门针对那些忘记关闭所有标签的人。它会在标签闲置指定时间后自动关闭标签。
您还可以将某些应用程序、标签或网站设置为永不关闭并设置更多规则,以便一切都自动化。最终,您只需担心浏览,Tab Wrangler将为您完成剩下的工作。
伟大的吊带(The
Great Suspender)
Great Suspender类似于Tab Wrangler,但不是关闭选项卡,Great Suspender只会暂停您不使用的选项卡。这意味着您可以在打开许多选项卡的情况下进行浏览,而不会影响性能。
当您切换选项卡时,这些选项卡将再次开始正常运行。有一些设置可用于将某些网站列入白名单或阻止固定标签被暂停,因此您可以很好地控制扩展程序的工作方式。
概括
这总结了我们关于如何减少Chrome
资源密集型的指南。我们希望本指南对您有所帮助。如果您需要更多提示或建议,请发表评论,我会尽力提供帮助。
How to Make Chrome Use Less RAM and CPU
There’s no denying that Сhrome can be a bit of
a resource hog at times, so we’ve created this guide tо help you mаke Chrome
less resource intensive.
These tips will help you to reduce the strain Chrome takes on your CPU and minimize the memory (RAM) the browser uses. Hopefully following these tips will help performance regardless of whether Chrome is in the foreground or running in the background.
We’ll start by looking at Google’s suggested
optimization tips and then we’ll share some lesser known tools after.
Steps for Optimizing Google Chrome
Our first suggestion would be to install the
latest Google Chrome updates. This could include new optimizations and fixes
for potential incompatibilities with your current hardware.
To update Google Chrome, click the three dots in the top right. At the bottom, hover over ‘help’ and then click ‘About Google Chrome’.
This will take you to a page where you can see
if you need to update Chrome.
If there is an update available, you’ll be
notified here and you’ll be able to update Chrome.
Once you’ve checked to see whether Chrome has
been updated, you can now move to Chrome’s built-in task manager. This menu is
something most people are unaware of and it can help you to reduce Chrome’s
memory and CPU usage.
To access the task manager, click the three dots in the top right.
Hover over ‘more tools’ and then
select ‘task manager’. In Task
Manager, you’ll be able to see which apps and tabs use the most memory and CPU
power within Chrome.
You may be surprised at some of the usage
here. For example, I had the Google Drive tab in the background and it was
using 430MB of RAM and I wasn’t even using it. You can close down apps and tabs
here or close task manager and then end them manually.
General Chrome Maintenance Tips
On top of these two tips, being more aware of
how many tabs you have open at once can help Chrome to be less resource
intensive. Each tab has its own impact on your performance, so 10
or more tabs will only increase the strain on
your PC tenfold.
If you want to reduce the strain further, you could take apps you use outside of Chrome by downloading standalone software. For example, picking up Word, WordPad, or even the desktop version of Google Drive instead of using Chrome.
You could also use Spotify instead of YouTube for music. Consider using standalone apps for everything so that Chrome isn’t such a memory hog, and remember to close those apps when you aren’t using them.
Remove Extensions or Viruses
You can find potentially harmful apps or
extensions installed on your Chrome browser by visiting
chrome://settings/cleanup.
In some cases, malicious extensions may have
been installed on your PC and this page shown above will remove them for you.
Malicious extensions may make adverts pop up or make other processes run in the
background that can increase the strain Chrome has on your PC.
Sometimes non-malicious extensions can have a
big impact on your Chrome’s performance too. To check through your extensions
and remove those you don’t need, visit chrome://extensions/ and consider
deleting the ones you don’t need.
You may find that there are extensions
installed that you never even use and these could be running in the background.
If you’re not sure what impact a particular extension may have on your
performance, you can refer to the task manager we mentioned earlier. Extensions
will appear there, too. You’ll need to delete them from the extensions page,
however.
Use Extensions to Manage Performance
After removing unneeded extensions, it may
seem counterintuitive to go and install more, but there are some extensions
that can improve performance. We’ve picked out three below that people may be
unaware of. All of these are designed to help monitor and reduce the strain
Chrome has on your PC.
OneTab
OneTab is a Chrome extension that can move all
of your open tabs into a single list. You can then use the list to re-open or
close tabs at any point. The list won’t take much of an impact on your
performance and it is far better than having all of those tabs open and running
in the background.
Tab
Wrangler
Tab Wrangler is another option, specifically aimed at those that forget to close all of their tabs. It will close tabs automatically after they are left idle for a designated time.
You can also set certain apps, tabs or websites to never close and set up more rules so that everything is automated. Eventually, all you have to worry about is browsing and Tab Wrangler will do the rest for you.
The
Great Suspender
The Great Suspender is similar to Tab Wrangler, but instead of closing tabs, The Great Suspender will simply suspend tabs you aren’t using. This means that you can browse with lots of tabs open without impacting performance.
When you switch tabs, those tabs will start running like normal again. There are settings available to whitelist certain websites or stop pinned tabs from being suspended, so you have a lot of control over how the extension works.
Summary
That wraps up our guide on how to make Chrome
less resource intensive. We hope that this guide has been useful. If you need
some more tips or advice, leave a comment and I’ll try to help when I can.
