The computer is fine, judging by Firefox starting resonably fast with very many tabs to restore for her on that computer.

Also the same chrome profile starts very fast when she uses the "private browsing mode" which doesn't restore any tabs. So it really just seems like chrome having perf issues with tab restore with many tabs.

Maybe it’s extensions.

But anyway the point still stands: an outlier user with 1000 tabs open had a slow startup time doesn’t mean Chrome is horribly engineered. If it isn’t an extensions issue then it’s a minor bug.
