Thread: Memory Leak

    Memory Leak

    does anyone know anything you can do about the memory leak in firefox

    I'm getting tired of manually terminating the program because it is eating up over 700,000 k of memory

    Uninstall/Reinstall. Are you having problems with other apps as well?


  3. Opera.

  4. how many dozens of extensions do you have running? more than likely it's caused by that

    no, its caused by firefox not giving up the memory used when I open a tab. I open on average, like 500-700 tabs a day.

  6. then I guess the solution would be to not use firefox until it gets fixed

    10 minutes or less or your time. Report back.



  8. Install Firefox 3, fixes many memory usage problems.

    I second this. I've been using it for a couple of months and the memory consumption has been pretty good and consistent. The only problem is that it is a beta and not all of your plugins will work.

    Good luck.
