Reading about google shipping unpolished things too fast in chrome makes me smile, since i've just decided to stop using it as of yesterday, after realizing how bloated that software has become ( cpu & ram wise ). Wonder if that's a coincidence.
Well, actually chrome was consuming about 1 gig of ram (if you're counting all the "Chrome helpers" processes) and 2% constant CPU when i had absolutely no page opened. So pretty much anything else is better (i'm on safari right now and it feels extremely light). Note that it's not just me : https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/y8VTVH...
