That is only because it doesn't keep all tabs loaded in RAM all of the time though.

If you open the same pages with the same installed extensions on both you will see similar RAM usage. It is only on restoring sessions or longer-term sessions that you will see a difference because FF will reload the page when it is activated again where chrome will keep it in RAM.

At least that used to be the case.
