>Unused RAM is wasted RAM.

Says the OS developer, says the browser developer, says the webapp developer, says the developer of whatever else you have running. Developer time is expensive. Says one. Look it runs fine and is snappy. Says another on his maxed out development pc forgetting about his grandma. Why should i care about that extra memory load when most pc's nowadays have x amount. Says yet another.

And so the slugfest continues.

>Also I find most performance issues with big apps are a result of browser extensions that interfere. Try using a private window without any extensions.

Browser extensions can definitely make a browser sluggish but most don't interfere with the content. The only ones that do AND are common are adblockers which have a tendency of making it less sluggish.
