Full summary	The Great-er Tab Discarder is a Chrome extension designed to boost browser speed by freeing up memory and system resources used by old and inactive tabs. Compatible with the latest Chrome versions, it allows users to discard tabs natively, which signals the browser to optimize resource usage without closing or removing tabs. This extension also supports suspending tabs for visual customization, offering a flexible balance between memory saving and usability. Unique features include migrating suspended tabs from other well-known extensions like The Marvellous Suspender and The Great Suspender, discarding all tabs at startup to improve launch times, and linking directly to Chrome's built-in discards page for easy management. The Great-er Tab Discarder ensures a faster, more efficient browsing experience while preserving your tabs for continued use.	Tab Suspender is a lightweight Chrome extension that keeps your browser fast and responsive by automatically suspending inactive tabs. It frees memory, reduces CPU load, extends battery life, and reloads tabs instantly when you return — ideal for multitaskers and users who keep many tabs open. Customize suspension timing, whitelist important sites, rename tabs for better organization, and export tab data to spreadsheets for tracking. Tab Suspender runs silently in the background, minimizes clutter and distractions, and helps you stay focused while maximizing browser performance and efficiency.
