If you have 2Gb of memory, and FF uses 250Mb so web page fetches and cache are faster, then FF is doing its job, so quit complaining. That's what available memory is for. Otherwise, you can limit it in 'about:config' but, as I'm typing this, I forgot where it is. Or you can upgrade to v3.5, as you should anyway.
I think, it varies. Currently I have 4 tabs & its using around 100mb. Previously with Youtube, it was using 80mb, I think when I tested it with youtube, I just switched on my PC, & now its over 8hours. Might be its due to temp files, Cookies etc
FF 3.5 is the coolest browser ever ! I mean you can't believe how fast its, just try it now and you'll see. in the past pages with videos and flash were loading slowly and sometimes cause a crash but now the load so fast. and I really like the blue color on SSL pages, isn't that so cool?!
I logged into adwords today and I only use Firefox. Works perfect for me. IE & Vista together are pure crap. I don't understand how Microsoft is making their products slower and crappier while the computer world is getting faster and stronger.
Wow I love firefox no one can compare right now not even google's chrome. The only little problem I am having with 3.5 is that some of my mods aren't working but that's okay I just use 3.0 when I need to do work with them =)
I don't know why people are so much excited about Chrome ? No Plugins, No More Options, No Able to handle many kind of scripts well, no much options for secure connections sites etc.
LOLz I know. That's is a stupid error. I switched to Safari and even IE and everything was ok. Server error? I don't think so lolz Don't know why. Maybe my poor connection lolz
Then read this and see if this is your problem. It could be your anti-virus but, again, the problem is NOT Firefox.
Thanks for the link. I've checked all and found no problem with my antivirus and connection settings. I just disabled IP v6. Hope it works Rep added for you. -Michael
