☑PC Tips and Tricks: Curb Firefox's RAM Appetite


Curb Firefox's RAM Appetite


Firefox was once famous for how light it was on system resources. With each new update, however, it seems be become a bigger and bigger memory hog.

Normally, it's set to "50000," but you can lower that number if you find Firefox is using too much system memory.
