yeah my firefox experience have been pretty subpar...it's just not stable.
It crashes all the time with like 30 tabs open...freezes up...and it uses 900mb of ram just by simply browsing....and can spike up to 2.3-2.4 GB ram if you do visit any intensive site.
The only reason I don't switch to Chrome, is because it doesn't support a lot of plugins that I use.
- steffan 15y agoI'm running a Firefox Aurora build on OS X and have a window with 456 tabs open. It seems to run just fine, although the CPU usage spikes up when restarting the browser. With the other 4 windows, I probably have close to 500 tabs and it's using 887MB of memory.
- kibwen 15y agoI'm generally forced to purge my accumulated tabs (using Aurora on XP) once I get to around 400 or so. Glad to see people who are just as tab-happy as me. :)
- ChrisNorstrom 15y agoYeah I hate the freezing up and ram hogging. That was the main reason for me switching to chrome. I miss my old extensions but after a few months you realize life goes on without them. Sorry to see you get downvoted by the Firefox fanboys.
