- Rated 5 out of 5by Tim Evans, 7 years agoI have only one gripe with this extension, and it may be unavoidable (for all I know) given the method it uses for "suspending" the tabs. When I close a tab that is to the left of a suspended tab, the suspended tab immediately becomes active again. I would prefer the tab remain suspended until I click in the browser content area.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Felininho, 7 years agoWork as intended, with great options for customization. I wish, though, it was more visually clear that a tab was discarded (I find the grayed icon hard to read). Thanks!

- Rated 5 out of 5by jcadbiz, 7 years agoWithout this add-on, Firefox has become an unwieldy, slowly dying wind bag. It will suck in 6GB of memory in a handful of hours, with heavy browser work. That's because of the tons of scripts and media being run on your computer. Even NoScript is not a good alternative, because it's very cumbersome - even if you use it for safety. Just be sure for ATD, that you spend a few minutes in OPTIONS (Tools / Plugins / ATD - Options) because you'll be consuming A LOT of bandwidth needlessly RELOADING stuff you're in the middle of. I am currently using 1,800 seconds before discard (30 min.), instead of the default 600 (10 minutes.)

- Rated 4 out of 5by Bayazid B. Halim, 7 years agoThis is nice, and works very well. I'd like for an option to temporarily disable auto discarding, though, since there are a lot of times when I work with a lot of tabs and I'd like to have all of them available. Thanks.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Bob, 7 years agoPara ordenadores con poca memoria ram es ideal. Tambien para aquellos que mantienen abiertas múltiples pestañas simultáneamente. Los ajustes son variados y adecuados.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Shajirr, 7 years agoDoes what it is supposed to do.
However, there are a few issues with it:
1) This addon is not 100% reliable. Sometimes unloaded tab will only have its tab name, but no address - it becomes blank if you will try to load it, so it is unrecoverable unless you can find that specific tab through its name yourself.
2) It lacks in my view a must have option of being able to protect specific tabs from being unloaded, accessible by right clicking on the tab. Pre-Quantum addon I was using had such an option. - Rated 5 out of 5by Lmar, 7 years ago
