I upgrade firefox the other day, i start it up process is about 28mb in CTRL-ALT-DEL as I browse it grows and grows the last one I killed was about 420mb

I noticed it because my machine becomes v.slow anybody else having this is it what they call a memory leak or something maybe?

Personally, I've found that it's been using a lot less memory than the last version, and they've talked about a ton of memory leaks being fixed.

what os you on?

I agree. Looks like if you want to keep using it spanno you may need to upgrade your RAM.

I'm staying with 1.5. Too many people reporting issues with that 1.5.01 update.

I'm glad I didn't update. I'll stay with 1.5 for now.
