No matter how many other programs I am running, when I open task manager it always seems like Chrome is at 1000 or 2000+ MB of memory usage, whereas everything else barely hits 500MB

How about why Chrome stays resident after you close it, too? I have to go into System Settings and shut down Chrome (and MS Edge, which is built on the Chromium engine) every time I use it because it sucks down memory like a drunk at an open bar.
I swear that once my memory usage gets above 50%, my system slows to a crawl….
::Yes, I know this is a question instead of a comment, but I want to know why Chrome’s such a memory hog, too – I have a Win10 PC w/16 GB RAM, and I have to go through Task Manager closing out unneeded applications so I can run Premiere, Photoshop, games, sometimes even Acrobat or Word!::
