I don’t think the memory management part has gotten anywhere at all. Open 10 tabs on Firefox and I lose 2-3GB of my RAM just like that. Chrome and Edge never cross 700MB.
Firefox is a colossal RAM guzzler.
- pepoluan 5y agoI have the opposite problem. I regularly open lots of tabs, and Chrome just expands its real estate pushing things into swap. Firefox just chugs on like a champion.
