Why so many open processes just having the start pest open?
Having only the newly opened home tab opens 10 new processes of which some are repeated. What happens to anyone else? Thank you

v-gapart Thank you very much for responding. If this problem keeps happening to me. With a single tab open, all these processes are currently opened to me.
To have if we can all find an explanation and or solution.
Thanks for all.

It's really not a problem. You can get more detail on what those processes are by opening up the Browser Task Manager (shift+esc).

Actually, it is normal. Every tab and extension runs in a separate process so that if one of them hangs, the whole browser doesn't hang. Plus there is the main process that controls everything and probably a process to capture crash data since it's still early in development. Multiple processes can also provide a measure of security if each process is isolated properly.

I have Google Chrome canary with only 3 open tabs and in the taskmanager under Google Chrome process i have OVER 20 sub-process.
