I'm not concerned about code complexity, but about memory usage. Memory

matching that.
I'm surprised that I keep hearing this claim. It doesn't at all match my
real-world experience from not too long ago doing my everyday browsing
on a serverely memory-constrained system...
Fortunately we have data! [1]. To quote from the conclusion there
"Simply put: the more content processes we use, the more memory we use".
So I don't know why your experience doesn't match, but both in theory
and when measured memory usage should increase with the number of
content processes.
