#Google chrome helper renderer mac memory how to

When the CPU is spiking high open the Activity Monitor and target the 'Google Chrome Helper', look at that line and take the PID number (in the picture that you can see in the question is 29048). The only suggest you I can give you is to debug the issue by yourself. Well, in this case you are facing something I haven't faced myself. Just don't touch that 'Turn on sync.' button.

Now you can also install the Chrome Extension that was giving you pain and you shouldn't experience any problem. Now Sign in into Gmail but don't never ever click on the 'Turn on sync.' button Well, this is normal, because you are not signed in. Now close your browser, reopen it and 'Google Chrome Helper' shouldn't bother you at all. In this case you have to click on your Chrome account on your browser and sigh out from all of your Accounts.

Or maybe that Extension is managed by your Company and you cannot disable it. Sometimes you can find the Chrome extension that is draining your CPU but you have to work and keep that Chrome Extension available. But what extension? You can now reactivate one by one while you have your Activity Monitor open and see when the 'Google Chrome Helper' is trigged. If the issue is resolved we can now point out that the issue was related to one of your Extension. In this case go to the 3 dots you find on the right upper side of your browser and then More Tools > Extensions, here you can have an overview of all your extensions.ĭeactivate all of them and relaunch Chrome.
