I don't understand the technical feat. The tabs are unloaded. Why should the browser struggle? 4400 URLs is small enough to fit in memory

1) Just because something is dumb doesn't mean there is any good reason for it to be that way, but also 2) it in fact is that simple for Firefox, with the exception that it kind of forces you to have at least one active tab per window.
