Are the 1000+ tabs related? Is this for research (or workflow, or just preferred routine...)?

I'm not the OP, but I maintain many windows--one for each line of inquiry/project and a few special windows for e.g. webmail. Each of these windows may contain 1-20 tabs and I regularly push around 500 open tabs. Like the OP, I make this possible by default disabling javascript.

The Great Suspender (fork) along with saving sessions is essential for high quantities. Browsers save tab context, you can go forward and backward unlike bookmarks. Super cool for sleuthing sessions.
