Application to Make Firefox Use Less Memory

Posted by: Dan | Posted in: Software

image  This application is well amazing!  It installs as a little application on your toolbar and is always running when you run Windows.  You can set it up to automatically load when Windows does.  This little guy finally manages to keep Firefox from hoarding all your memory.  It does slow down FF a little but nothing that is too bad and it is worth the memory savings.  Lately I have been noticing that FF has been taking up on average 445MB of ram on my computer.  After this application is running it shrinks FF down to an amazing 1K.  I am sold!

I know the FF3 is supposed to solve this issue and I have listed a few fixes before.  But until FF3 is in a stable state or at least supports all my plugin’s this will have to do.
