The measurement and the results are not convincing. "Just regular stuff" and "Real-life usage" is not a measure! If you want to compare the memory usage you need open the same predefined web pages in the same order in every browser. Without this the results are not verifiable by anyone.
Nevertheless, on a PC with 3GB RAM I m not sure that lower memory usage of firefox 3.0 is an advantage. I would be much happier if my software can effectively use the available free memory as not too use it at all.
On 3GB configuration Safari 3.1 is my winner:D
I use Gentoo on a 20 CPU cluster with 12 nodes ( 181 days uptime now ). The slave nodes are running on a liveCD built on the Gentoo sources. I use Gentoo as network shaper, LTSP server, Mail and Web server.
After trying different linux distributions, Gentoo seems to be the most flexible Linux distribution.
About the stability?
Gentoo forces you to get known every part of your system. This knowledge is what helps you to solve the problems in critical situations. The control is in your hand.

Hehe, somebody from borland read my post and fix the site. Good reaction after one year ;)
Funny, but the Hungarian Kylix site is hacked for more than one year. The page is full of text "Hacked By Milli-islam.OrG". Nobody cares at Borland.
