I have Version 61.0.3163.100 (Official Build) (64-bit) of Chrome installed on Windows 10.
I have four active profiles running (i.e. separate signed-in Google accounts - call them "main", "work", "personal", "darkwebz").
One profile - my oldest and primary account - is the one with the following issue:
Creating a new tab, switching tabs, or creating a new window, takes about 2 to 3 seconds. I have disabled all of my extensions and rebooted - even signed out the profile and rebooted - every time I sign in it brings back the delay.
Interestingly, while this delay occurs with the primary profile, the rest churn along quite happily - open / close / switch tabs is near instantaneous. This is all happening on the same machine with everything running; so it's not a specific CPU problem or resource issue - at least, I can't see how. As a test, I opened 40 tabs on the primary, and 80 on another profile, and the primary is slow, the alternative is lightning fast. That being said, page navigating within a tab is not affected - only new tabs, tab switching, and general navigating around tabs.
After exhaustively trying to disable every extension, refresh, reboot, sign out, sign in, etc. I happened upon one little tidbit that seemed to affect everything - the moment the Chrome theme loaded up, it all went to pot.
I then disabled the Theme and presto! Everything is normal and fast!
So, when in doubt, try reviewing the Google Chrome theme ...

Etherpad - awesome free collaborative online tool
There are a few handy tools out there that I consider to be game-changers.
Etherpad is one of them.
According to http://etherpad.org/ it's an open source project that is designed to allow you to edit documents collaboratively in real-time. You can also add in tons of plugins that allow your instance to suit your needs.
You also can run it online from one of the public repositories.
This little tool has a lot going for it and it's just simply fantastic. It is so simple to set up, so simple to use, and has great functions. It's ideal for a group collaboration and doesn't require the added fluff of Google Accounts etc. (although Google accounts do have their own merit, this is a sure-fire way to get a simple solution up and running quickly and is more like a use-once-and-then-burn option).
