Guide | How To How to check the "memory usage" of each extension in Chrome!

[Venustus]

Very handy keystroke(if you didn't know already)to find out how much memory each extension in Chrome is using:

SHIFT + ESC

This brings up Chrome's task manager!

Unless the Shift or Esc keys are broken, here are 2 alternate methods to open the Chrome Task Manager.

For full memory details, from the Chrome Task Manager click 'Stats for Nerds', or go to

chrome://memory-redirect

It will also display memory usage for any other browsers, if running.

[1] : Right-click anywhere above the Tabs > Task Manager.

[2] : Click Settings > Tools > Task Manager.

PS: Shift+Esc is the quickest method, so get your keyboard fixed!
