windows 7 - Why Google Chrome run multiple processes when there is single tab opened? -


it logical run multiple processes when multiple tabs there in google chrome found multiple processes under single tab only. thought thread stuck restarted pc , opened google chrome , found same behavior. using windows 7.

chrome has plugins, web apps, rendering engines , others separate processes browser itself.

that done if 1 of processes fails, won't affect whole browser, or whole tab, because separate processes too.

for example, firefox doesn't have that, instead detects script in page should causing problem , shows dialog if want stop it.

in summary:

chrome treats these different processes:

  • the browser
  • the browser (yes, again. chrome it's 2 processes)
  • each tab
  • each extension (at least 1 per extension)
  • each web app
  • each plugin
  • each whatever, process, yay!

and helps things can run in parallel , that stuff doesn't end crashing whole browser.
