Research direction

Start by reading the issue and related issue #2611, High Memory Usage, to understand the reported long-running-command problem. No files, tests, or entry points are named, so the first step is to identify the tab and memory-management components and clarify whether the result should be a UI or command. Done requires an agreed scope and a working way to inspect tabs and their memory usage.

Describe the solution you'd like?

It would be nice to have a "Tab Manager" (like Chrome TaskManager) with this functions:

  • list all open tabs with memory consumption (and maybe number of blocks and more statistical infos)
  • one right click context menu item could be: remove blocks older than xx days

Note: I'am also happy if this is done as a command which prints the info into a block instead of a fancy UI

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Memory consumption can be high on some long running commands which produces many output to the terminal.
