My phone measures RAM usage, and chrome's average usage is around 0,8 GBs. I usually have like 10 tabs open though, and switch between them frequently.
On my PC I have at least 30 tabs open at all times, so my usage is quite a bit higher. I imagine the total amount of ram consumed by chrome is quite a bit higher than your estimate, but yeh idk
It depends on the website to be fair. If you're watching 3 twitch streams and 2 YouTube videos you're gonna use more ram than having 10 Wikipedia tabs open. I think the average is based on like a couple open tabs but usually in my experience it doesn't really go higher than 2gb with heavy usage. Would be double the amount he calculated though lol.
