I love Firefox, but it's memory management leaves some to be desired lol
LightProtector 3 points 3 years ago
Agreed. It eats RAM like it’s nothing. I’m downgrading from 32GB to 16GB soon and I’m really worried.
zaemz 2 points 3 years ago
Moving up from DDR4 to DDR5?
I bet you'll be alright! My laptop has 16GB DDR4 and Firefox works just peachy.
I wonder if Firefox has a method of giving up RAM when it doesn't need to hold onto it anymore?
LightProtector 2 points 3 years ago
Nope, still DDR4 lol. My old RAM had some weird leaking issue where it caused my games to crash and I kept getting pissed off teammates and comp bans.
I installed the new RAM Corsair sent me with the old one for now, so now I’m running 4x8gb. Seems to be fine for now.

I switched from Internet Explorer to Firefox as soon as I was exposed to it in grade school. It wasn't until my highschool years that chrome launched (15 years ago, holy smokes!) and I switched to the shiny new thing. Chrome was so snappy and lightweight in those days, it was a clear winner. Stayed with chrome for the next decade and in that time it slowly morphed from a light-weight, snappy browser into the infamous RAM hog its known for now. In the meantime Firefox seemed to have to have upped their game with a smoother browser experience, and that along with their anti-tracker & privacy ethos made me switch back to Firefox within the past couple years.
I dont know why I'm getting a fuzzy feeling all of a sudden... am I weird for feeling nostalgic because of an internet browser?
