this machine, with a gig of ram in it, was going slower than usual just now so I checked task maanger to find that Firefox was using over 1,000,000 K of memory. Otherwise knows as about a gigabyte.
I googled and apparently this is a very well known issue with firefox, to do with page caching. You can disable it, or reduce it, but even starting FF up and doing fuck-all takes over 100 megs. i've some addons installed but 100 megs??
So I'm trying Opera; initial impressions are favourable.
(Yeah yeah, if i had a mac or linux, it'd only use 35K, i know)
