Stop viewing pages with a ton of high res pictures, restart FF, problem solved.

Don't use FF?

That's why I stopped using it. It's memory "management" is horrendous.

 

[mugs]

Yeah, I've gotten pretty high before... especially if I leave it running for a few weeks.

There's a hack that makes it dump the memory when you minimize it. Google it.

thats nuts

Now the ram is using YOU.

 

[Rubycon]

Un-used ram is wasted ram.

:laugh:

 

[Goosemaster]

that's a lot of gifs

 

[Zaitsevs]

jimbob just wanted a reason to have a screen of his huge monitor!!


showoff!


anyway, I've had that happen and the minimize trick works.

That's why I'll never use Firefox on my laptop, I'm starting to like IE7 a lot better now because of it though actually.

I use IE7 at work and like it too. Opera is still my fav though

I'm on version 1.5.0.7 and it's more prone to crashing than the old versions. Various sites cause the crash.

I've never used over 250,000k in FF.

I've just been shutting down FF when I'm done with it, as opposed to leaving open multiple tabs. If I do happen to do that overnight, I'll read them before restarting FF for some more browsing.

Learn to close FF every once a while. Why must you keep 30 windows open 24/7?

 

[Rubycon]

At least it's not as bad as Photoshop.

I don't leave my PC on 24/7. It's usually only on for a couple hours each day.

Could be why IE is gaining back marketshare.

Haven't had the chance...no need really...sticking to windows and linux 32 all the way for now

 

[Parrotheader]

That's why I finally ditched it (that and it wouldn't render a couple pages I have to work with daily correctly.) Switched over to AvantBrowser and couldn't be happier.

 

[SparkyJJO]

Don't know what problems you guys have but I don't have any with FF
