We should all be trying much harder to make PerlMonks crash and burn. It's too big to fail so we'll end up billionaires with a new version if we can only drive it into the ground. Remember it's illegal to short Java.

Or seriously: Having the tabs/windows open doesn't eat up extra resources since there is nothing persistently dynamic going on (unless you have chat clients open which strikes me as pretty rude if you're not actually there). So, don't worry. And being here often is the biggest reason I'm an overpaid successful developer so using the site often is definitely not harmful in that regard. ...Maybe to your rear.
