How to reduce Firefox memory consumption
Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2007 12:08 pm
Hate to admit this but sometimes I really suspect the slowness of my browsing experience comes from heavy memory usage by my Firefox, and there is nothing to replace good-of-firefox. I need to open too many tabs and cannot afford buggy Internet Explorer. Stumbled upon Techbuzz, Thilaks show a way how reduce memory usage in Mozilla Firefox. Ive tried it and think it helps a lot.
How to reduce memory usage in Mozilla Firefox
Type about:config in the Firefox address bar
Search for browser.sessionhistory.max_entries
Double **** on the value 50, change it to something lower, 5 should be good.
Averagely we surf less than 5 of the websites we previously surfed before, there is no need to usage up that much memory (which is 50 by default)
Try it..maybe it can help you all.
