Why's FireFox running slow? - A|fzZz - 08-20-2007
2.0.0.6 version
Done spybot scanning
Done Adware 2007 scanning
Both don't even have infections (besids those cookies)
1k ram
FF using around 80000 in Mem usage in Task manager.
Anything else?

I'm not sure, 80,000 seems a bit weird. Mine only takes up about 40,000

well i would clear cookies. sometimes firefox does the same for me. but sometimes its the website itself.

Try clearing your temporary internet folder. =].

www.stevengould.org - CleanUp! 4.5.2 Download
Download and Run that. It takes 2 seconds. It helps alot, it deletes all of your temporary files rather than you manually taking them out.

Mine is using about 45k right now. If you have multiple tabs open in one browser, the memory sometimes skyrockets.

What Nubs said,multi-tabs can eat up a lot....clearing temp files is always good too.
I have trouble with I.E. cloning it's damn self and ending up with 16 of the stupid things popping up.I close tabs and the retarded thing mutiplies till I go into Task Manager.

You suggest opening 1 window for each link or what?

I'll have a bunch of tabs open from time to time but I never try to do anything heavy when doing it, i.e. playing WoW, running Winamp, and having 8 tabs open. Granted I could still do it because I have 3GB of RAM (rolleyes
but one should be aware of one's system capabilities. Back when I had 1GB multiple tabs would rape my system.

Nope. A window > tab.
That will just cause alot more lag.

Yup.

hmm.. i think that it also depends on the amount of add-ons you have. im using 127K right now, even though i only have 3 tabs/windows open. last week it lagged like hell, and i only have 512 ram. clearing the cookies seemed to help a bit
