It is similar to OneTab but keeps the tab open (with Flavicon and Name) but just "parks" it after a time period. It saves back states.
As a heavy open tab users (we have a support group I've heard) I like it. Working with 4 GB of Ram is made much easier!
If you have a tab that you don't want "parked" after 15 minutes (configurable) then you just pin it. So Gmail and Pandora get pinned. The rest park themselves and reload on when I select them.
IMO the great suspender is better at solving this problem for me because (recalling from memory my experience with tabmemfree couple of weeks back):
1. The great suspender retains a visual snapshot of the page (along with title, favicon etc) thus helping me jog my memory about what the tab is about.
2. It uses a internal chrome:// URL to park the suspended tabs instead of using an external URL (http://). I am not saying that the developer of tabmemfree could be spying on the URLs being parked. But I am just not comfortable with the idea of parking my tabs using an external http service.
3. An explicit text format white list rather than relying on pinned tabs (which makes me lose the tab position, title etc).
4. Explicit option to suspend a tab or group of tabs (and bring them out of suspension) - instead of just relying on time-outs to suspend a tab.
