Just Downloaded Firefox 4...

i've got 4gb of ram... it's just that it locks up sometimes because of how much memory it uses and i have to end task it.
 
then you got other issues... runs fine even on a POS netbook here.. but my home system does have 16gb of ram as well. and it's ice smooth there.
 
I too just finished downloading it....going to take some getting used too.

Oh - I had the problem before with the Java plugin or the recently downloaded menu bar.
 
The hardest part about going from FF3 to FF4 is that they swapped the position of "Open Link in New Window" and "Open Link in New Tab" in the right-click hyperlink context menu.

EDIT:

Although, I guess I could just CTRL + Left Click 😛.

Keyboard shortcuts are for effeminate Mac users.
 
the only good thing about it is the security upgrades behind the scenes. everything else sucks about it. the zip of omni.jar, the placements and relocation of all the buttons, etc

yup, that was very annoying.
 
Use Chrome, you get a speed boost and you can uninstall Flash and Acrobat Reader for good as they are built-in to Chrome and update with it.
 
I only have 4GB RAM and FF runs just fine for me, I've never had to end-task it. With a regular HDD it did take a bit of time to start the first time, but it was never really an issue. With an SSD it's even more of a non issue.

I run FF all the time at work on systems that only have 2GB of RAM and it runs perfectly fine, again I never have to end-task it. I don't think Firefox is the problem.
 
I dont like how they changed the UI around for FF4. They are trying to go after Chrome's UI but it's throwing people who were used to FF3.6. I thought I'd come back to FF3.6 after the UI changes, but FF3.6 kept crashing for me after the latest security update.
