Stumbled with this fix for FireFox's RAM lust.

anyone tried it before ?
results ?

It is said that Firefox may have more than one memory leak, and in any case the mem usage can grow a lot bigger than the memory cache would allow for if you leave it running long enough.

Short answer: This won't fix the memory leaks completely.
Long answer: This won't fix all of the leaks, but it may fix some of them, and this could slow down the RAM-gobbling process. In any case it should not be harmful, so it's worth a try.

This isn't a leak, it's a feature ;-)

This caches pages in RAM. You can limit the amount of RAM, and Firefox/Mozilla do use quite a lot for it....supposedly it's dynamically adjusted now but who knows. This should make your browsing happen a lot slower, but it might compensate for any real small memory leaks, for a while at least.
