    They simply can't fix their memory leak problems. Leave Firefox open for 24 hours with 30 tabs, and memory climbs to 700mb!! WTF. I think the issue is that the browser keeps history even for tabs you close.

    Opera rocks btw, give the new version a try. No ads, banners, completely free.

                  Why do you need 30 tabs open at the same time?

                  And why would you leave your browser open if you arent using it?

                    firefox
                    tools
                    options
                    history
                    from there you can set hold long FF keeps history.

                            Yes and yes

                            I usually have between 7 and 15 windows open at a time split between 2 monitors, don't use tabs yet though, but something I will have to get used to using evenually.

                                  That's the only moan I got with FF - exactly the same problem. Was hoping they would cure the mem leaks with 1.5, but na.

                                      Na FF runs fine with over 100 tabs open The pain in the ass is the daily closing down to release mem leaking - but then it's fine for another 24 hours. (And mem leaks are still the same whether 2 tabs or 100 are open)

                                        lmfao are you serious? maybe your system is just fucking gay... i have had firefox open for the last 2 weeks, haven't restarted it, or my computer, and usually have around 10 - 20 tabs open at once, also have a crash recovery extension incase it does crash, hasn't yet, which remembers what tabs are open and everything so i can start off where it crashed, and i STILL haven't gone over 100mb of memory used... check your shit, probably have something fucking up your system... don't blame firefox for your idiocy

                                          I handle the issue with FF by using the Session Manager (crash recovery + more) plugin. Once a day or so I kill the process of the browser when the memory gets up to around 500k.

                                          Instead of having to keep track of where I was it, I just restore the 'crashed' session and it opens back up all of my tabs etc.

                                            I believe in most countries, having 30 tabs open at once is against the law. Please refrain from using so many tabs simultaneously. Thank you.

                                                    that memory maanagement thing is pissing me off too lately. Every so often the browser freezes, I hit ctrl-alt-del and wat the memory climb.. it's frozen, doing nothing and it climbs from 75 up to nearly a gig in a minute

                                                          Instead of having to keep track of where I was it, I just restore the 'crashed' session and it opens back up all of my tabs etc.
                                                          yep, that's exactly what I do.

                                                              Says who, a post whore from 2006?

                                                                definately has memory management problems ... bad flash will send the thing climbing till it hits pagefiles. great browser, just needs to get that under control and its over.
