> 1. What is fixed in v2.49.5 from v2.49.4?
1.) Basically platform support. Now uses VS2017 instead of VS2015 under
Windows. A bunch of patches backported for this. ewong things we should use
this with the new infra too so this will stay.
2.) Security backports. See the mozilla-esr60_xx.patch files:
http://www.wg9s.com/comm-esr/patches/git/mozilla-esr52/mozilla-esr60_449884.patch
More to come here before an official release.
A few wip fixes which still need some work but are stable:

And also some fixes in review or not yet checked in.

Thanks! I do use the updated Flash plugins from Adobe. Flash is rarely used
though. Oops, I meant to say UNofficial 64-bit. :(

You can have both x86 and x64 installed. There is no 64 Bit official 2.49
available. Everything Windows x64 is unoffical. 2.49.5 has fixes over
2.49.4 but the profiles are interchangable. Extensions should work in both
versions. The x64 version only supports Flash if you still use plugins. It
will update DOMi to 2.0.17.2. I never found the time to put the updated
version on AMO.
If unsure do a profile backup and just try it. I also use NoScript 5.1.9
together with uBlock 1.16.4.4. You memory problems might well be tracker
and third party scripts running amok.

I can't have both 32-bit official (EXE installer) and and 64-bit official
(portable zip file) installed at the same time? I know I can't run both of
them at the same time. Also, will my old extensions still work in the
64-bit portable version? Here is what I have right now:

I have seen SeaMonkey hit a GB or 2 but not much more. I hope we are able
to provide an x64 Windows build soon after the new infra is ready. You
can try this one if you would like to take a test drive:

Please uninstall your x86 build first. The profiles are compatible. Mapi
is not Working in x64 TB and SM Windows builds so send from explorer will
fail. This is an unofficial build with no warranty but most of the the
additional backports over 2.49.4 where done by me.

A couple questions:
1. Is the official Mac SeaMonkey 64-bit or 32-bit for Mac OS X Sierra
v10.12.6 on a 2012 13.3" MacBook Pro (MBP) with 8 GB of RAM and 500 GB SSD?
2. In my updated 64-bit W7 HPE SP1, my 32-bit SM is slow with some web
sites especially with muliple tabs like on YouTube, Google News,
LinkedIn, etc. For an example, it can go up to almost 3 GB of RAM with
about 10 HTML5 YouTube video tabs (not playing all at the same time,
just buffering them with one video playing). I don't have this problem
in MBP. I wonder if it is capped at 3 GB of RAM since it is a 32-bit
process even though I am using a 64-bit OS.
I hope someone can answer my technical questions. Thank you for reading. :)
