> 2. Lazy loading: I am not sure if Chrome has it or not but FF doesn't load a tab content until I switch to it.

This is usually transparent to me. Except when I am on a train and realize that all the tabs I have opened in the background have never been loaded. :(

For this and other reasons I have removed tabs from my workflow, now I use 90% maximized or half-screen windows. It is also easier to alt-tab between them.

You can simply uncheck "Don’t load tabs until selected" in the General section of Preferences.
