Exactly. I remember hearing "eight megs and constantly swapping" as a joke, I think for anything javascript app related I can now say: 8 watts and constantly increasing The amount of energy javascript pages now take makes me in some ways wish we had the ease of blocking crap like flash back in the day to not make my fans spin.
