Reduce firefox memory usage

2008 April 14

Most, if not all, Firefox users know that our favorite browser is a memory hog! It consumes a lot of your computer system’s resources.

I’ve been searching for the solution on how to reduce the memory use of firefox. I’ve followed all the modifications in the about:config. It worked.. but not entirely..

Now here’s a gem i found. Its called Firefox Ultimate Optimizer.. and it really is an ultimate optimizer!

I’ve been using this to free up memory being used by firefox since January this year and i’m surprised that i haven’t blogged about it yet.

Oh.. the best part.. Its FREE!

Here’s a look at firefox before using Firefox ultimate optimizer.

Here’s what happened after

I haven’t had any problems in using this great gadget!

Try it!

You can download it from here or here.

    Switch to Firefox 3.0 and thank yourself later for it.

    ever since i updated my firefox to razor-sharp latest version, i find memory-dragging activities have been happening quite often, i just find it busy to fix this small things, good to know there’s someone’s there to search things for us :)

    keep it up dude, you’re doing nice and yo, get a domain will you?! :)
