38 extensions eh? Hows that memory leak working out for ya? Up to around 180-200mb yet?
I will only run MeasureIt, Firebug and CookieSafe for developing.
Anything else will just bog down your firefox along with the rest of your PC.
I have to kill FF every 4 hours or so to get some memory back. Its really disappointing.
I just want to ask: How does one know that one has a memory leak?
Does the browser bog down?
I don’t think its THAT bad. I’m the first to concede FF has significant memory leak issues, but it does things like tabbed browsing better than the others and has better computability with many sites than browsers like Opera. I have bigger stability issues with OpenOffice.
I thought they had the memory leak issue addressed in one of the early 2.0 releases, but it has showed its ugly head again.
As of right now, I’m at 248M and some change, but my system is humming along fine at 512M RAM. I’ll put 2 gig in my next build and won’t worry about it.
