I'm running FF 3.5.8 (latest) on Windows 7 64-bit edition. With Firebug enabled, after 10 to 20 minutes after launching Firefox, Firefox is using somewhere around 600 KB of memory, and it continues to increase as I continue to browse. Right now I'm up to 888 KB. I just noticed this for the first time yesterday, which is soon after upgrading to Firebug 1.5.2.
I've been developing a new web app which is making use of Telerik controls for .NET. But I don't think there's any problem with Telerik. When going thru the same web pages in IE8, IE8 is only using around 30 - 50 KB of memory. I disabled Firebug once (disabled the add-on under Tools -> Add-ons) and after going thru the same web pages for about 15 minutes, I was only around 90 KB of memory in Firefox. So I'm almost certain this is related to Firebug. Anyone else seeing high memory usage? Any ideas are appreciated. I could try downgrading to 1.5. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
