Casper's Life
Firefox has become a memory hog, it will do it best to use all the memory available, or so it seams. I sometimes see that Firefox uses more than 1GB Ram, which will grind my computer to halt, or make everything else very slow.
According to this, there is a simple way to make sure that Firefox doesn’t use too much memory.
- Use the configuration editor (url: about:config)
- Find ‘browser.cache.memory.enable’ and change it to ‘false’
- Add ‘browser.cache.memory.capacity’ as an integer, and set it to 4096
Restart Firefox, it should not behave itself.
