- Rated 5 out of 5by shorthawk, 5 years agoGreat extension - the "discard after x time" and hotkey options are amazing, and the dev is open to suggesstions!
- Rated 4 out of 5by robsku, 5 years agoThis is a great extension - I finally had to find a similar extension to BarTab that I used to use before the webextension thingy when my laptop with 20GiB finally used up all the RAM, most of the swap space and slowed my system to crawl until I could free some of it... After installing this the memory use has dropped to a fraction of what it used to be. I started with the default settings, then after most my tabs were discarded I set the time before tabs get auto-discarded to much higher.
One request I have - if possible, could you make this extension to work with TST (Tree Style Tab) extension, so that if it detects TST it will show discarded tabs like it does on regular tab bar (which I've hidden because it's kinda redundant with TST)? That would be most awesome! Also you could add TST-specific features, such as "discard this tab tree", etc.
I would definitely add a star to my review for that! =) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14626815, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Atri, 5 years agoThis is an exemplary add-on! It does what it says: it cycles out old tabs to reduce system load and improve speed. It is thoroughly configurable. I can't recommend it enough!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16053094, 5 years agoTHIS EXTENSION IS AAAAWWWWWESOME!!!!
I had about 30 tabs open and using about 75% of memory, but AFTER installing and activating the extension it WENT DOWN TO ONLY 48% memory use! I Love that I can deactivate all tabs except the one I'm using at the time.
THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE AND VERY USEFUL TOOL!!! Thanks Richard my brother! - Rated 4 out of 5by Ulysses, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13138523, 5 years agoGreat extension, just one tiny little edit should be considered, would it be possible to discard the tab that's currently in focus? I would like to leave an empty tab opened then if the tab in focus is idle it discards it and goes to that empty tab (this already happens if I manually press the discard button on the focused tab) but it would be a lot better if it were done automatically after the time has passed.
Thanks, once again a great extension. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ory Band, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14672552, 5 years agoShocking reduction of memory usage for somebody who loves to keep ~20 tab opened !

- Rated 4 out of 5by jontsuba, 5 years agoEven though I love this extension as a tab hoarder, recently I've noticed that when I reload a tab, instead of loading the last page it loads the google search I did in the first place before entering a result. As a result, I can't access the page I wanted. I hope it will be fixed.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Joabe Ferreira, 5 years agoUm BUG,
Quando ativa a função de alterar o Favicon, ele fica Cinza, mas nunca volta ao normal. Eu já tentei remover o favorito e excluir o favorito e recolocá-lo de novo, mas o Favicon continua cinza. Esculhambou o Favicon! - Rated 3 out of 5by Clemens Ratte-Polle, 5 years agoAuto Tab Discard ATD Firefox addon:
I lost all my by tabsuspender discarded tabs :(
1. And an option would be fine to reload discarded pages only by a mouse click into the page.
2. Will ATD reopen the discarded tabs and URLs (even from Bookmarks) if the addon "Auto Tab Discard" would be disabled, defect or uninstalled?
thx
