Phantom Tabs In Google Chrome
Phantom tabs have been designed to help Internet users reduce the amount of computer memory the Google Chrome browser uses at any given time. Many Internet users keep some websites and services open all the time in their web browser even though they might be accessed only sporadically by them. These tabs occupy the same amount of memory no matter if they are used or not.
That's where phantom tabs come into play to help the user reduce the memory used by the web browser. They basically kill the process of the tab so that the computer memory is freed but leave an indicator in the form of the web page's favicon behind so that the website can be opened again when needed.
