PartitionAlloc-everywhere support is now rolling out to the Chrome beta channel for Android and Windows.
As more and more of our work is increasingly done in a web browser, limiting the amount of RAM Chrome uses has been a top priority for Google. According to a new report from Windows Latest, the search giant has been busy working on ‘PartitionAlloc-everywhere’ support for its browser to improve the way in which it performs on Windows 10, Android, Linux and possibly other platforms as well. Once PartitionAlloc-everywhere has been merged into Chrome’s source code, it will allow the browser to start more quickly, load internal pages faster and offer improved resource management which means it will use less RAM.
