Firefox is stealing my RAM!
posted by CodeGirlI set
browser.cache.memory.capacity = 16384
and thought I was done. So WHY is Firefox taking even more than that???
about:cache
Memory cache device Number of entries: 604 Maximum storage size: 16384 KiB Storage in use: 39828 KiB Inactive storage: 0 KiB
I’m sure this has been happening for quite some time, but I
only just noticed thanks to the “Cache Status” Extension.
I love you Firefox, but sometimes you piss me off

Seems that this is a windoze problem only. On my Linux laptop and desktop,
the mem cache in use is holding steady at “15.9MB / 16MB”.
Stupid windoze
[the only reason i am using it currently is for the VPN client that I need to
get my office network. They do have a linux client but it doesnt work with
2.6 kernels]
