  I'm assuming you are looking at Windows task manager, if so, make Chrome browser the active window, then hold down the shift key and hit 'Esc'. This will bring up Chrome's own task manager. If you want even more info, click the 'Stats for nerds' link at the bottom left corner of the task manager window.

  I guess it's just curiosity that makes me click on stuff to discover what it does, and I often end up in trouble, hehe.
  
  One more thing about Chrome's own task manager is that if you right click on it, you can add or remove information columns.
  
  

  P.S. I have no idea or the skills required in order to construct a kitchen Jim. ; )
