Accepted answer

i forked your fiddle to a working solution @ http://jsfiddle.net/axynp/ the most important code snippet from there is this:

$(window).resize(function() {
    height = chart.height
    width = $("#chartrow").width() / 2
    chart.setsize(width, height, doanimation = true);
});

the solution bears on this so post's answer.

it seems like the best you can do to resize the chart's container (and cell) properly is to rely on your own resize trigger. note that i set the reflow to "false" in the chart's options to remove the existing trigger.

usage

$(window).resize(function () {
    if (this.resizeto) cleartimeout(this.resizeto);
    this.resizeto = settimeout(function () {
        // resizeend call function with pass context body
        adjustgraph.call($('body'));
    }, 500);
});

for bootstrap tab

$('a[data-toggle="tab"]').on('shown.bs.tab', function (e) {
    ischart = $(this).attr('data-chart');
    var target = $(this).attr('href');
    if (ischart) {
        // call functio inside context target
        adjustgraph.call($(target));
    }
});


<ul id="tabs" class="nav nav-tabs" data-tabs="tabs">

         <a href="#anagrafica" data-toggle="tab"><h5>anagrafica</h5></a>
    </li>
    <li><a href="#consumi" data-toggle="tab" data-chart="1"><h5>consumi</h5></a></li>

on chart

    new highcharts.chart({

you can avoid using javascript to perform the resize and rely on css instead. this can be accomplished by rendering the highchart into a div that has:

position: absolute;
width: 100%;

to make sure that the height of the container is appropriate, you'll have to wrap this absolutely positioned element in another element that has explicitly set height:

position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 400px;

by rendering the highchart into a position absolute element, the chart will be responsive to width reductions in the parent.
