Real-World Firefox 3 Memory Usage Leads the Field
An anonymous reader writes "The author developed a program to snapshot memory usage per process every 3 seconds on Windows. Using this he recorded 3 hours of memory usage for five different browsers under real-world usage scenarios: Safari 3.1, Firefox 3, Flock 1.2 (a browser based on Firefox 2), Opera 9.5, and Internet Explorer 8. A million data points indicate that Firefox 3 has a surprising advantage over the other browsers tested. These are real-world tests and not contrived benchmarks."
Not really surprised though.

It doesn't take a degree in physics to cogitate that this would eventually catch up to you, twitter.
And yes, you have failed. The problem is that you'll probably just create more accounts. But eventually those will catch up with you. The dishonesty you've shown in the past few months by shilling your own comments and pretending that people are interested in what you have to say (and let's no forget how many of your self-farmed mod points you used on all your accounts and against others) is just unbelievable.
I think I speak for most honest Slashdotters when I say "good riddance".
Firefox 3 (with 4 tabs open) for me is using about 1.1 GiB of VSZ with about 168 MiB of RSS. It's still the most memory intensive application currently running on my system but I never really notice too much of a problem, and I've only got 1 GiB of physical memory.
because nobody likes you twitter, thats why! also you simply dont understand that uptime of vista is completely irelivant

What's sad is that an asshole changes your opinion rather then looking at the OS yourself.
