At the very bottom of about:memory there are several buttons, Update GC, CC, and Minimize memory usage. Click on the Minimize memory usage button, and Update, that will clean up your memory a bit. If I understand correctly the Minimize memory usage button, does the same thing as a GC followed by a CC, 3 times. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
