Just keep tabs open, they eventually start chewing up hundreds and hundreds of MB of ram each, and slowly grinds itself into the ground. Relaunch, it's snappy again.
- MBCook 10y agoI wonder if it's something those sites are doing in JavaScript, because I have the same experience as the other poster. I keep tabs in Safari open for weeks at a time without any issue or noticeable memory increase. However, I do know there are a handful of web app type things (Google calendar and possibly Gmail are coming to my mind) that seem to leak memory and cause issues if left open. Edit: eridius mentioned Google Docs. I'm pretty sure that's what I was thinking of.
