[Bug 1579817] [NEW] Hangouts tab is killed to free memory
Public bug reported:
The browser will kill non-focused tab processes when it needs to free up
memory, which is usually fine, but when I have a hangout tab (or any
video-conference, music streaming, etc) tab open I want to be able to
navigate to other tabs without those being killed. Could tabs that are
actively using the microphone, camera, or streaming either video or
audio, be given an exception to the memory-killer, or at least given a
different priority than static-content tabs?
** Affects: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu)
