Also the Developer Edition, which is the alpha channel, is multi-process as you'd expect it to be. But speaking of hundreds of tabs, try doing that in Chrome, do that in Firefox, and compare.
- frik 11y agoI use dozens to hundreds tabs in IE11 and Chrome, sure it may use 16 GB ram, but I have more than that. Firefox often removes the tabs from the memory, going back to the tab means reloading the page. I will check out the recent Alpha for sure, I have it installed.
- bad_user 11y agoMaybe you have a system with a lot of memory, but for me Chrome gets to be unusable with many tabs open, whereas Firefox survives.
- josteink 11y ago> I use dozens to hundreds tabs in IE11 and Chrome, sure it may use 16 GB ram Ah yes. The infamous "16GB ram in a laptop is not enough because I use a web-browser called Chrome"-syndrome. And then someone turns around and says Firefox has memory leaks. You'd think they were joking, but they're not.
- whyever 11y agoAre you abusing tabs as bookmarks?
- frik 11y agoNope. But during research I open tabs an switch between them. And for every research topic I tend to use a seperate window.
- detaro 11y ago> But speaking of hundreds of tabs, try doing that in Chrome, do that in Firefox, and compare. At least in my experience, bad example. Chrome works with ~300 Tabs, Firefox freezes or crashes regularly with way less then that. And this machine only has 8 GB RAM. Let's hope the current changes in Firefox stabilize it.
