Managing Burp Repeater tabs - Port Swigger
Summary: PortSwigger's documentation describes how Burp Repeater opens each new HTTP or WebSocket message in its own tab, with tab header controls for creating and changing tabs. It notes that tabs can be duplicated only within a group, that a tab view toggle offers two views, and that each tab consumes system resources so large numbers of open tabs may affect performance.
What you should know: The tool's own guidance warns that every open Repeater tab draws on system resources, so a tester running many tabs at once can degrade performance on the machine doing the work.
