EarlyOOM is your friend. Tweak it to save the most important stuff and kill irrelevant stuff first when low on memory.

Why can't browsers discard tabs to disk instead of this ridiculous assumption that the server will still exist to redownload the tab content rom.

Autodiscard. Its a plugin i use that helps most of the time.

Well... though there are reasons to save pages to disk, the server being still up is a fair assumption, really.

It isn't on a mobile device where you might go out of wifi or cellular coverage. But it's probably a good thing as I don't want my tab habit wearing out my disk

When people have hundreds of tabs open i get it.
