    At the moment have 63 processes running. Did a reload of Windows last night and am still installing other software, will probably go a little higher when all done.

    Wow, and people argue that Google isn't invasive!

    That's the best reason ever not to use Chrome.

    53 without chrome open. I really don't like how chrome takes up so much space in the processes window. If I ever have to find another running process, I have to scroll through 20-some chrome processes to find it. I understand how chrome works but it'd be nice if all the same processes were listed together under a nested tree.

    I think other browsers are heading in the same direction as well. Reason for this is, if a site hangs up or crashes a tab, the whole browser session will not crash.

    I think we should stick to not liking chrome in-line with our previous observations ;)

    68. 11 of them are Chrome processes.

    I have a fairly old PC so whenever I notice lag while doing things, I usually open task manager and look for dodgy/unnecessary processes.
