I’m a great admirer of Firefox and a very regular user. The only thing that I get worried about is the amount of memory that firefox consumes. It shoots very easily to 150,000++ KB.
Today I installed Chrome and at first I was amused to see it only consuming around 24000 KB but later I noticed that one session of chrome kicks off atleast 4 chrome.exe processes and as we increase the number of tabs, the sessions also increase and so is the memory consumption.
Anyone has similar or different observation? Appreciate your input.
I religiously avoid IE and have been using FF for some time now. I have played with Chrome some and found similar behavior you described... plus the plethora of extensions available with FF almost make it a no brainer .. FF rules
Really fast & light weight ... ( first time when i open page load in a blink .. i thought may b cached but nah its really fast ... if it use more resources i don't mind i paid for it )
Clever design idea ... more browsing space ... no need of title bar (waste of pixels)
I been to a presentation, comparing different browsers and its for sure that FF does far exceed IE and GC in terms of performance and JS rendering. But I think GC will be pretty useful with new Google online applications. They are saying that it will be more than just a regular browser. I am really looking forward to that.
Maybe we’ll be hearing new terms like G-HTML or G-Javascript or something like that. But its for sure that our basic HTML and JS do need enhacements to build 4th generation applications.
