FWIW I'm on a 2018 MacBook Pro with 32 GB RAM and while Chrome eats up its share of RAM it doesn't ever cause me any issues. Currently at 17 days system uptime with Chrome running all of that time, currently running 5 windows with at least 10 tabs in each window and Chrome is using 3.8GB RAM. I currently have 19GB RAM free with zero swap use. Can't recall the last time I saw a beach ball or the fans spin up without me doing something I knew would spin the fans up (such as a long ffmpeg encode).
