This page is just a place for me to keep track of contributed memory to web pages over time. I consider the contributed memory to webpages to be more important than the own memory footprint. Unfortunately, a user can not see how much memory overhead an extension contributes to a webpage without running a benchmark like the one here. Keep in mind the results here are only for **one basic web page.**

Using [Acid Test 3](http://acid3.acidtests.org/), a simple webpage with embedded `iframes`, the webpage opened in a new tab for each extension after a browser restart.

Each extension was tested alone, with no other extensions enabled. Leaving the browser idle for more than 1 minute ensured that the webpage memory was garbage collected.

Observations:
The last time I ran this benchmark [was on Chromium 34 64-bit](./%C2%B5Block-vs.-ABP:-efficiency-compared#added-memory-footprint-to-web-pages), and it does appear that Chromium 37 is causing webpages to consume more memory. The reference result went from ~17 MB to ~22 MB.
