Really?! It's even a bigger memory hog than Chrome!

Really?! It's even a bigger memory hog than Chrome!
- ghjfrdghibt 2y agoNot in my experience, though likely it depends on what you're running in the browser. My experience with web apps designed only against chrome are they perform worse in Firefox (Gmail, etc). This is not a Firefox issue though.
- mentalgear 2y agoI specifically switched to Firefox 2 years ago because the inverse is/was true. Even if Chrome has improved, it can't be as dramatically.
- nikolay 2y agoI tried many times to switch to Firefox from Chrome and went back every single time. Yesterday by mistake I started Firefox with a few hundred tabs - it was using 128GB of memory and simply died. Chrome handles thousands of tabs without an issue. The only lean browser is Safari. Many sites don't work on Firefox or Chrome, but never had any issues with Safari.
