I wonder if Chrome would be able to eat up all of its resources, the way it does with so many other machines.
FYI - I'm on a 2019 Mac Pro with 32 GB of RAM and Chrome STILL, yes STILL often eats up all of its resources and I get the beach-ball while the fans spin and the machine gets super hot.
FWIW I'm on a 2018 MacBook Pro with 32 GB RAM and while Chrome eats up its share of RAM it doesn't ever cause me any issues. Currently at 17 days system uptime with Chrome running all of that time, currently running 5 windows with at least 10 tabs in each window and Chrome is using 3.8GB RAM. I currently have 19GB RAM free with zero swap use. Can't recall the last time I saw a beach ball or the fans spin up without me doing something I knew would spin the fans up (such as a long ffmpeg encode).
I'm curious what you're doing in chrome? I've got a 2018 model with 32gb of RAM and I've never seen the beach ball in chrome... I've got 11 chrome windows each with dozens of tabs.
