Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/54.0.2840.99 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. open many tabs so the tab width gets smaller 2. close some tabs to make space for other tabs to expand What is the expected behavior? tabs expand immediately What went wrong? tabs stay compressed for few seconds before realizing that they have space to use the attached gif explains the issue Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 54.0.2840.99 Channel: stable OS Version: 10.0 Flash Version: - closing the last tab prevents this bug - mouse movement is unrelated (the gif might confuse someone to think this)

I'm a bit confused by this bug. The tabs should expand when you move the mouse out of the tabstrip. Is that not happening?

Yes they should. and they do. but in after a really long pause it's like chrome tabs needs 5-6 seconds to finally realize that they have space anf then start to expand. I usally have big number of tabs so they get very tight and I close many at once and I always have to wait for a while before they expand

Once you move the mouse out of the tabstrip the tabs should resize in 300ms. In the gif you have attached it seems to resize pretty quickly after you move the mouse out of the tabstrip.

Right, the tabs will never expand as long as you stay in the tabstrip. The trigger for them to expand is moving your mouse out of the tabstrip. I suspect it seems like things are taking a while because the mouse is still over the tabstrip during that time. Closing tabs with keyboard shortcuts instead of the mouse is one way around this, as the strip will resize immediately when tabs are closed with e.g. ctrl-w instead of clicking the close button.

Thanks for the workarounds, at least I can avoid this annoying issue but I still think this needs fixing :) as a user I expect the effect to happen immediately not after I move the mouse away (assuming I know about this in the first place) I think it makes sense to trigger after tab close and not after a mouse out. I really hope you guys reconsider the wontfix. at least keep it open for someone to fix someday :) thanks!

It's not a work around. The reason chrome does this is so that you can close multiple tabs without having to move the mouse. In the image you attached you close 5 tabs without moving the mouse. If the tabs resized after every close you would have have to move the mouse after every close as the close button would not be under the mouse.
