Thread: Decrease RAM usage in FirefoX

Use this great add-ons for Firefox:



AFOM - Memory Recovery & Retention For Firefox Only 2.0

Has been tested with Firefox latest version

Just FYI, 2.0 is the version of the app, not the version of FF it's for. It had me worried for a moment. >.<

Looks good, testing it now.

had many problems recently with firefox freezing up, so installed this and giving it a run over the next few days. will come back with report.

all the comments on the download page look very positive so lets hope it sorts it out.

Well spotted

hmm unfortunately Windows only

Thanks, looks like it worked.

I will try it and let you know how it works out. Thanks for the post.

EDIT: It works quite well. My Firefox isn't bloated to almost 200MB now, it hovers around 50-60MB with heavy usage. Thanks!

Heeyy, works like a charm. Thanks! Excellent tip for me cuz I'm crazy FF user

Thanks, but with 4 GB Ram and x64 Bit mrmory, i have no issues with it..//

Moreover, user comments is not very good./
Keep swapping processes and tingling with task manager!!

I shall avoid this!!

Actually if lowering the RAM of Firefox by too much is no good. All you get is still crappy and sluggish browser because the swap between the RAM and HDD would be slower.
