<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial>Firefox does use more ram over time -
restart it and you will find the memory use dives. Its not all
Firefox's fault - some is memory leaks, but most is from Flash and other
plugins, so other browsers will do the same.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial>Hint later versions are usually
better at using less memory! So check your version</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial>Each version gets tighter on memory
usage, for instance I have had 67 tabs open for about a day and Firefox is using
380MB memory. I am running the 3.7 nightly alpha build too (ie the
latest bleeding edge) - I have been following issues like this on the
Firefox development newsgroup.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2 face=Arial>Chrome also can have similar
issues, largely as it uses separate processes for each tab and this increases
memory usage too.</FONT></DIV>
