Chrome/Edge high memory usage for Databricks tabs.

Is it normal for Databricks tabs to be using such high memory?
The Chrome example I just got a screenshot of was this (rounded up/down)...

3 x Databricks tabs for one user, sized at
6gb, 4.5gb, and 2gb

Total = 12.5gb

I know it gets higher than this too, I've just not caught it in the act yet.

It gets to the point that Chrome/Edge uses up all the memory and eventually crashes.

Is Databricks known for consuming all the memory in browsers? ie: memory leaking.

Anyone?

Having the issue for a while now. Open Databricks notebook tabs routinely take up 3GB of memory each.
