Is this a problem a browser can solve? I mean modern websites are so large with so many crappy stuff and always loading something in the background - if you have 15-20 tabs with similar background loading web sites your browser is bound to consume a lot of memory.

If I am not missing something obvious, aren't we blaming the wrong thing?

I'm not sure about that. Chrome's Task Manager says this HN post is taking 255mb and the front page 101mb.

That's weird. Chrome is only using 31 MB for both tabs for me.

Do you think it's related to the display? I'm on a 15 inch rMBP.
