new build of firefox decreases memory usage for only 10 minutes.

[secretanchitman]

just downloaded it...and im only at 35K with a couple of tabs open!

this is great...but i get the sneaky feeling that it'll creep back up to 200K in no time. :frown:

35K?
That's like a middle sized Word document.

lol, i usually am up to 150K most of the time. its a royal pain in the butt, especially when you only have 512MB total ram.

so anything below 75K and i am a happy camper. sorry, ill only use IE for windows update and certain sites, and i dislike opera because i just cant get into it.

M! K is very unlikely

you even said you got 512MB of ram

 

[secretanchitman]

ah dammit, im back up to 105K!

might as well change the thread title to: new build of firefox decreases memory usage for only 10 minutes.

35k KB is probably what he meant.

You've got 512MB, what's the problem?

 

[imported_LoKe]

173MB for me. Doesn't seem much better than 1.5

I would say that my memory usage hasn't broken 40MB on Opera which has 8 tabs open for over 3 hours now, but you know, that wouldn't help

The 40MB figure also includes Proxomitron for ad blocking

If however, FireFox has dropped to 35KB, I'd be impressed.

i dislike opera because i just cant get into it.

Which part of it can't you get in to?

Opera FTW!

*goes insane*
Is it 35K or 35M?

Isn't it obvious that it's 35 MB? 35KB is insanely small for a browser with mutiple tabs.
