Firefox/Thunderbird memory usage

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since starting to run FC5Tx/Rawhide, it seems like Firefox and Thunderbird consume a lot more memory than they did on FC4. I'm just starting to collect numbers so don't have much evidence yet, but was wondering if others felt the same.

Memory at startup (Virt/Res):

firefox - 113m/31m
thunderbird - 159m/51m

When I last closed them out of frustration (in competition with another process, so the Res numbers are probably lower than the real working set):

firefox - 370m/154m
thunderbird = 419m/81m

I do have a lot of email and look at large newsgroups (linux-kernel from gmane), but I don't remember having this experience on FC4.
