Guess which of the bazillion tabs open in my browser is consuming the largest amount of system RAM by far? Ten points if you guessed LinkedIn. Resource Monitor said the tab was consuming a whopping 1.6 gigs of memory just now. In fairness, I guess all that tracking and AI garbage does require a lot of resources.

LinkedIn because it operates as a Single Page Application (SPA) with an infinite scroll feature :1000:

@briankrebs@infosec.exchange It depends on how much your tab has been used on your Browser. Firefox with much tab is worse.
