You know; I have to side with Sthu on this. I run a testing install on my AMD 64 3200+ which is maxed out at two gigs of ram.
My system runs fine without any problems and I use Ice Weasel, mind you, I also save bookmarks and such and though I run some tab nowhere near 200. Though I also often run Virtual Machines and the like which are a far larger resource hog. IDK, I understand the idea of resource bloat, but if you have 8 GIGs of RAM, I just don't see how a 200mb footprint is a problem. TeddyB P.S. Sorry for the CC Sthu, didn't mean to, noticed after the fact. -----Original Message----- From: Sthu Deus <sthu.d...@gmail.com> Date: Sat, 20 Nov 2010 21:50:11 To: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Subject: Re: Frustration made me do it.

I use FF only, and have much less memory parameters - yet never had any problem like that. Of course it is up to You what You do w/ the software You've once installed, but let it be at least known to You that the reasons You've brought here just are no essential or in other words, not Mozilla-specific.
