Mozila Firefox 7.0 alpha consumes at least 30% less of memory ?
The discovery that increasing garbage collection on its Firefox Javascript engine resulted in an 80 per cent drop in memory usage raises questions about the quality of Mozilla's code testing.
BAD HARDWARE: However, I wonder what happens with browsing speed with reduced memory use? Anyway, Firefox 7.0a uses 30% LESS memory. First trade off compromise? I had 700MB memory usage today on Firefox 5.0 and Firefox was extremely slow. Download Aurora here.
BAD HARDWARE: Firefox 5.0 and 6.0 stink. Skip them now.
