That seems more like a leak than normal behaviour.

If you go to Window > Task Manager it'll tell you which PID corresponds to which tab.

It's the main Chrome process, I killed it and all Chrome windows were gone :)

And i wouldn't call it a leak, you need to do extra work to prevent the system from sleeping, so someone did this intentionally.

Oh well, since I had to close Chrome last evening to my computer will sleep, today I opened Safari as my main browser instead. Google annoys too much lately.

I meant that whatever was supposed to clear the wakelock didn't run, thus leaking the wakelock. I really do find your problem odd, I recommend taking a look at your extensions if you want to track it down at some point.

Safari's fine these days though, so you do you.

I've seen 6 hour wake locks as well. From Chrome. Even if it's a leak, why 6 hours?
