Is this still the current behavior or have we changed the implementation?

Title:
  browser is limited to 2 live webviews

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I often open far more then 3 tabs but when I have 3-6 tabs open only
  and chance back to another one this tab is cleared already and have to
  reload.

  It's not the same but similar to this bug:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/webbrowser-app/+bug/1268055
  But while this bug is a wishlist for me this behaviour is very unhandy and annoying:

  This is very bad because you run more fast then necessary into the
  traffic limit of your UMTS provider. And when it is a limited speed it
  takes really really long to load the other tabs again and again when
  you have to often chance between them.

  In combination with other (maybe unreported until now) bugs it is more
  bad than this because I have to load the site a while and then stop it
  because advertisement blocks the view of the website until I stop it -
  or wait until 30s again for nothing (ads).

  How should it work: For example my opera mini on my old andoid device
  with only 256 MB RAM works much better then this browser with 1 GB RAM
  on Ubuntu phone - but this can chance. There I can open 50 tabs or
  more and no tab have to reload!

  How could it solved: Maybe there's the possibility for a new option in
  the optional configuration file for a bigger cache size, a tab number
  limit or something like this. I have enough RAM but no time and
  traffic for reloading again and again. Please help as soon as
  possible.

  I used stable and vivid-proposed channel on a BQ phone with all
  Updates.
