In Palemoon Preferences/Tabs, there is a setting: Don't load tabs until selected.
Will that setting do the same?

Hm. Neat idea. It does seem to work, too.....though, as you surmised, it's only for post-Quantum versions.

Thanks, Will.

Yup, looks like it. I wasn't aware that feature existed for Palemoon. Thanks for the info. I shall have to investigate.....

There's a similar add on called Lull The Tabs;

https://github.com/JustOff/lull-the-tabs/

It basically unloads any tabs you have open that aren't active.

@ Colonel Panic:-

Thanks for the info about 'Lull-the-tabs', Just downloaded/installed the .xpi file to Palemoon now. I'll give it a few days, see how it works.

Cheers!

You're welcome Mike, hope it works for you.

Oh, I like it, TBH. I never have a huge number of tabs open (never been my way) but this works very effectively - cuts down RAM usage quite noticeably - and it's only a case of clicking a 'greyed-out' tab to bring it back to life again. Highly configurable, too.

Yep; this is one I'm happy to recommend to other folks. Good catch, mate. Nice one!
