firefox vs original mozilla

Post by Red Squirrel »

which one is better in terms of speed in reliability? I find mozilla is a real memory hog after a while. It will use up 100Megs easly most of the time. Is firefox better in terms of that? I might switch to it. I tried it and it does seem a bit faster too.

Wow it sure is faster anyway.... I did manage to make it use 300MB but at least it does not use as much as mozilla when idle. I guess that's what happends when you try to load a few hundred MB worth of html. :lol:
