Its Using 111,000 K memory .. I have the no theme Installed and the only add ons im using are Stumble upon, Adblocker, Greasemonkey and Flashblocker.


Back in the day FF2 used to run on 70,000 K memory MAX. and they said FF3 will use less RAM.

Im thinking of switching to opera, but I don't know if it is actually better than FF. What do you guys think?

Try disabling each of the add-ons to see if any of them are responsible.

I like opera a lot.

Apparently it uses like 125,000K memory though lol, but I have plenty of RAM so **** it.

I had a similar problem with the first Dell Refurbished laptop I got, I had to use IE. That laptop had a multitude of other problems though, so now that I have the new one I don't have any issues.
