This morning, in less than 3 hours of running, Seamonkey had taken over
2.5 gig of memory and was climbing. About 8 tabs were open -- including 4
for the application FACEBOOK.
It had frozen and was past the point of graceful shutdown though i might
have been able to do that with about 30 minutes work. (I have before)
Is there a way to make it use less memory? If so, what would it be?
No. Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. are the big memory and CPU hoggers in my
SeaMonkey usages especially with multiple tabs. I always have to exit and
relaunch SM to regain them after using these web sites. :(
Maybe. But I see that Facebook or Linkedin eat less memory when I open
them on Firefox or Chromium...
SeaMonkey v2.49.4 (basically Firefox v52) is still using old Gecko engine
compared to the (new/lat)est Firefox web browsers that use Quantum. :(
Hi, I'm using both Firefox and SeaMonkey (and Safari) and I see a lot of
differences in speed and hangs.
Firefox does not hang even with a lot of tabs (and many Facebook pages and
groups in different tabs, YouTube videos and other huge websites), while I have
SM blocked many times a day.
And this is on iMac 5K with 24GB of RAM!
One main difference I see on macOS between Firefox and SM is that FF splits the
load in several processes (they were 4, now 8 with FF 66) while SM is just one
big application.
Eg. now I have:
- SeaMonkey 3,58 GB
- Firefox 825 MB
- FirefoxCP WebExtensions 362 MB
- FirefoxCP Web Content 485 MB
- FirefoxCP Web Content 425 MB
- FirefoxCP Web Content 206 MB
Why this is not applied to SM?

PS: SeaMnokey is also using more CPU than Firefox, even when it's in background!
