I don't use any plugins...quite behind, I know...but almost anytime my old laptop is screaming along at 100%, all I have to do to restore calm is shut down ff. So I doubt it is the plugins...
-----Original Message----- From: Gerald Guido [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2008 3:36 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: TOT - FireFox memory issues My problem is that Firefox will start out at 60-70 megs of ram but slowly creeps up to 500+ and slows down (and pegs the processor) often to the point of being unusable after 3-5 hours. I have to restart it at least once a day. I have forgotten to turn off FF over the weekend and have had it creep up to 2 GIG's of ram by Monday. I have trimmed down my plug-in usage to the bare minimum of Firebug, the Web Developer tool bar, delicious and Google tool bar. All of which I use everyday, all day. I am pretty dependent on Firebug and the Google and Web Developer tool bars. I can live with out del.icio.us. In an ideal world I would rather not give up anything. Does anyone have any suggestions? I would rather like to avoid a reinstall. If I need to do a reinstall, how can I save my history, cookies, pre-populated form fields, passwords etc.? Or is that part of the problem as well? JSYK, My workstation is a 1 yr old corporate Dell desktop w/XP, and twin dual core P4 2.8's, and 2 gig RAM. It happens on all my FF installs so it is not just this machine. tia G -- "Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance." - Will Durant ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:302576 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
