      Browser and website developers see it other way: we can care about optimizations even less now.

        Oh yes. There was a proposed patch for Google Chrome a while ago that attempted to block some kind of hypothetical memory scanning attack with the only downside that it increased memory usage by 25% by padding out the process with a massive amount of fake instructions. I still get mad thinking about it. The memory scanning is entirely hypothetical, but the memory usage is very real.

        Maybe one day people will learn that tabs were never designed to perpetually stay open, 50 at a time, and be used as some makeshift bookmarks system.
