Google Chrome suddenly using lot of CPU & memory after update

Click For Summary
After a recent update, users reported significant CPU and memory spikes in Google Chrome, with some experiencing 100% CPU usage and full memory consumption on their systems. The issue appears to be linked to the latest stable release of Chrome, as closing the browser resolves the problem. Suggestions to mitigate the high resource usage include disabling extensions and testing the beta version of Chrome, which some users found to be more stable. There are also discussions about potential bugs related to specific web pages or the update process itself. Overall, the problem seems to be a temporary bug in the stable release, with users encouraged to monitor their tabs and processes for resource consumption.

Firefox is also good, but working with google account easily with google product chrome. All memory issue mostly occur because of using chrome extension plus one or more google account ( there where create google workspace).
