Firefox 1.5... resource hog!
 

man, anyone else finding the new firefox 1.5 to take up tons of system resources? i'm thinking about going back to the last build!

nope runs smoothe and good for me

:iagree:

..whenever my comp starts runnin a lil slow, i open up the task manager, look under processes.. here ill do it right now,,,, well well well, according to my processes, (even though i hav ONE window for firefox open for tst), it says that i have 9!! :eek: processes open totalling about 68,000 K in memory usage.. not to mention the other 49 processes that take up memory..

1.5 was specifically designed to have a smaller footprint. you either have 9358340985 tabs open, something else running, or LOTS/heavy plug ins.

+1

49 processes. thats your problem mine runs at 25 including winamp, trillian, firefox, objectdoc, and ATI tools

well i guess im just confused then..

i got firefox but i dunno what version

I agree, I've got a gig of ram and virtual memory disabled, runs smooth as butter. :)
