The fact you can free memory in inactive tabs (actually a feature built-in to Edge without the need the for a plug-in) works very well for my workflow where I like to have a lot of reference pages open, but don't need to use these all the time. On the plus sides it is stable, doesn't report memory issues with web pages, and has access to the vast selection of Chrome browser plug-ins. It may be *slightly* slower, but not enough to bother me. It seems pretty clear to me that Edge manages memory significantly better and results in far less disk writing, which is a concern for people who are writing >10TB per month to their internal SSD, and potentially shortening the service-life of their Mac. Swap usage generally stayed under 6-7GB and seemed to have less effect on disk writes
