Introducing Sleeping Tabs Experiment: Improving Memory Usage in Microsoft Edge
@Eleanor_Huyn I really love this feature, but I would like to access it by a shortcut, so I can sleep tabs I am not using without having to wait that the browser does it. Also, I would like that the tab only awakes again when I press the shortcut, so even if I enter to the tab, it stays slept
I strongly agree and i also really like to be able to enter the sleeping tabs without waking them up. I usually have 20-30 tabs open that i use for references to my work and it is really no need to wake them up again and refresh the page to view the information. This will really help save internet cost for mobile broadband users and if internet is down there is still possible to view the page without the information disappears when the browser try to refresh the page but the computer is offline. That happens to me almost every day. Freeze my tabs forever function will really be the biggest progress in internet browsers for a long time instead of bookmarks that need to load the page and the hassle to find the bookmark. So Microsoft please do it immediately!
Thank you yuriasky for bringing this great idea up!
