від taco, 4 роки томуLoving the addon so far ! Been using it for months now and had zero bugs, it has simply just worked 100% of the time, which is amazing.
I have a feature request though which in my opinion would add to it's value immensely.
As the core goal of this is not necessarily reducing the number of loaded tabs, but rather reducing CPU (and by extension, battery/heat/power) usage, RAM and disk I/O. So what would be great, would be the possibility to unload tabs by their resource usage. This data is available in firefox profiler capabilities but it's rather cumbersome going checking the data by hand through the debugging tools.
The feature could be added as a new condition to be mixed with others, like after X open tabs unload tabs which use >X% CPU and/or >X MB RAM / unload the next highest resource usage tab / after X minutes close tabs using X% cpu or X MB RAM / only close tabs which use >X resources.
Adding a tooltip when hovering over a tab which displays their CPU/RAM usage would be neat too.
For my use case as I've moved the FF profile to ram disk and I have plenty of RAM, I don't really care about disk I/O or RAM usage, but badly coded CPU-heavy scripts on some sites makes browsing a slog (not to mention killing the battery when on a laptop), hence this plugin. But a static site which runs very little to no scripts does not really contribute to the resource usage, unlike some badly behaving sites.
And systems which are more starved of RAM, could start unloading tabs by highest RAM usage instead, when total RAM usage exceeds X MB as a condition, for example.
Anyway, just my two cents for now, and keep up the good work !

- Оцінка 5 з 5від Користувач Firefox 13197014, 24 дні томуHave up to 300-400 web sites opened in as many tabs in 2 Firefox instances. Have been using Auto Tab Discard for about 10 years and thanks to this extension, browser uses 1.5 GB RAM +/- 500 MB. Appreciated.

- Оцінка 2 з 5від GordonW, 2 місяці томуI'm very frustrated with this extension. When I installed it, I was so hopeful that it would lower the memory load of my many tabs. I tweaked the various options to get the performance I wanted (with Gemini's help). But I made the mistake of turning on "Change favicon of discarded tabs", which causes a Z icon to appear on discarded tabs -- a feature I decided I did not like. Do not do this! Because you will never be able to turn it off again. You can easily uncheck the option, but the Z icons will never stop appearing. I tried deleting the extension and then re-installing it. I tried deleting the three favicon files in the profile. I tried turning off Firefox sync for add-ons. I tried everything Gemini and I could think of, for hours. But I've finally given up and deleted the extension. I feel like I've damaged my Firefox installation by installing Auto Tab Discard. Will a Firefox refresh fix this issue? I don't know. If the developer is reading this, please post a solution, and I'll give it a test.

- Оцінка 3 з 5від Teagan, 3 місяці томуThe last time this was updated was 4 years ago (Dec 17, 2022). It might be time to update this extension ?
