Re: Frustration made me do it.
You know; I have to side with Sthu on this. I run a testing install on my AMD 64 3200+ which is maxed out at two gigs of ram.
My system runs fine without any problems and I use Ice Weasel, mind you, I also save bookmarks and such and though I run some tab nowhere near 200. Though I also often run Virtual Machines and the like which are a far larger resource hog.
IDK, I understand the idea of resource bloat, but if you have 8 GIGs of RAM, I just don't see how a 200mb footprint is a problem.

P.S. Sorry for the CC Sthu, didn't mean to, noticed after the fact.

I use FF only, and have much less memory parameters - yet never had
any problem like that.
Of course it is up to You what You do w/ the software You've
once installed, but let it be at least known to You that the reasons
You've brought here just are no essential or in other words, not
Mozilla-specific.
Have a good day.
