Chrome Tabs – Why Grouped in Processes and How to Stop It

google-chromeperformanceprocesstabs

I noticed that in Chrome, it groups all the tabs into one renderer process, at least for me. This is a problem because that makes Chrome really slow from having 150k of RAM to sort through.
Is there some way to force it to make every tab a separate process?

According to Chrome documentation, there is a --process-per-tab command line switch that does what you want.
