Hi mark. I honestly don’t know if this tweak does anything with current versions of Firefox (the tweak is almost 4 years old!)….

i am right now around 1000MB and rising..
with just a few tabs

thats because my notebook only goes to sleep/standby
i never turn it off (and firefox only exists on crashes^^)

but it really pissed be off – because everything is getting soooo slow – with 1GB of firefox memory not a very surprising thing

hope this config thing does the trick

That’s a neat trick, but doesn’t seem like a good final solution since we use browsers so much so we’re constantly maximizing them again.

I’ve found that Firefox under Vista is pretty stable, up to about 130 tabs or so, on my system.

Thanks for the tip. This did the trick (at least for minimizing the amount of memory that’s used).
