Google Chrome Helper Using Up Too Much Memory Google Chrome Helper is appearing in Activity Monitor a dozen times and overall using a ton of memory.  How do I curtail this?  Most advice columns say to go to my plugins and check "Play on click", but Google updated the browser and this option is no longer available.  What can I do?
Every "Helper" is either a tab, a subframe, a core Chrome process or an extension.
You could reduce RAM usage by uninstalling extensions, or just using less tabs.
