Another useful tab manager extension for Chrome is Tabli (http://www.gettabli.com), which I created and submitted as a "Show HN" last October (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10464603). Helps you quickly find tabs you already have open and lets you save and restore windows (collections of tabs) with meaningful names to keep things organized. 100% Free Software (sources on github), respects privacy, and has keyboard shortcuts for efficiency.

I tried using that, but i keep getting this issue on OS X: https://i.imgur.com/PeZluRL.png

This is not specific to Tabli though, it's every time there is an extension popup with content.

Maybe it's something that can be fixed? Also, the open animation is painfully slow.

Thanks for the bug report. I have seen that happen intermittently but have never managed to find a reliable repro. There's a long-standing open issue on github for it: https://github.com/antonycourtney/tabli/issues/45

I have new release of Tabli pending that will address a number of performance issues, so may resolve this for you. If you DM me I can let you know when it's available.
