I have and they aren't always firefox extension users.

What specifically didn't they like? I'm sure you can find someone to dislike
just about anything.

Chome slows to a crawl when you have a lot of tabs open >70 in my personal
experience

yeah please give me a real use case for 70+ tabs that doesn't involve a PHD
research paper :)

TVTropes. (Or Everything2, or Wikipedia, or...) Basically, using the tab bar
as a "to read next" queue as you spider a heavily linked graph. The real
solution to this, though, isn't reducing memory usage, but rather avoiding
preloading tabs opened in the background once you hit a certain threshold.

10% they say? And internal projections are even higher? This sounds like a use
for corporate prediction markets to me. I'd bet against that.

At present Chrome has 2.84% market share.

It sounds like a minor thing, but I hate when I highlight text in chrome,
right click and select to search, it opens the new tab in the forefront. I
want it in the background like Firefox does.
