Firefox, in every version I've used so far, appears to have memory leaks. If I kill it, not by clicking its little "X" or Alt-F4, but with "kill -9", so that it reopens everything when I restart it, my memory usage immediately drops by 75%. Then it creeps back up. > My browser consumes 655MB of memory and uses 34% of the CPU. > > The system uses 30% CPU, 265 Process, 50% memory and swap 9%. > > I haven't partitioned my hard disk. > > I have Toshiba L200 Laptop PC Hard drive 1 TB, 5400 rpm, 128 MB/8MB > buffer > > -- > > With kindest regards, William. > > ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ > ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian - The universal operating system > ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://www.debian.org > ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ > > >
