Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the way most users are using pinned tabs. Check out the great suspender. The only tabs it does not freeze are the pinned tabs.

Extending that functionality to throttling seems natural to me.

It looks cool. Browser memory isn't too much of an issue for me because I run NoScript and uMatrix and thus most of the tabs I have open aren't each running an instance of Google Analytics and stuff like that.
