Normal or Not ?

When I run Task Manager, under Processes, Google Chrome 32bit is listed 10 times ? Is this normal ?? Its using both CPU and Memory ? What are the consequences of deleting 9 of them and letting just one remain ? Thanks Jay.

Yes it's normal, each tab on Chrome runs in its own process (as well as the rendering engine, plugins and active extensions)

Yeah that's normal. Google chrome splits itself up. A bit might run your favorites bar, one for each tab open or hell even addons. The consequences of deleting 9 of them is that you have no idea which one does what.

I won't go in to what it means by memory but long story short it's normal.

See the below picture, that's my task manager at the minute with 4 tabs and an addon or two. It differs from pc to pc.
