In summary, there are several reasons why Google Chrome may be running slow on your computer. This could be due to a lack of system resources, too many open tabs or extensions, or a slow internet connection. To speed up the browser, you can try closing unnecessary tabs and disabling unused extensions, clearing browsing data, and ensuring your computer has enough available resources. It is also normal for Chrome to slow down over time, so regularly clearing browsing data and minimizing the number of open tabs and extensions can help maintain optimal speed.
