Despite RAM upgrade, Firefox manages to fill the void
All Posts No Comments »Upgraded my main desktop to 2GB of RAM, yet Firefox still manages to take up a ridiculous amount of memory. ~300MB of RAM to be exact. Before, with 1GB of RAM, it was around 240MB of RAM.
Unreal.
I have no idea what all that memory is going towards. JS memory leaks in Gmail? Caching to memory every page I visit, plus 10 levels worth of child links from those pages? I have no idea.
Unset the page file, so things are kinda speedy. For some reason Windows wasn’t automagically using as much physical memory as I had, so I had to tell it to scrap the swap file. Makes me want to switch to Linux.
