I have been running MemoryFox addon for a month or so now. It drops memory usage dramatically (in 3.5.x) and I haven't found any negative side effects. Give it a go. I haven't tried it with 3.6 yet.

Thanks for the link. I'm currently working on a machine with low RAM so will give it a go.

Now to just get my few final addons working then I'll be happy again on 3.6

I'm too impatient to wait until the add-on developers upgrade their code. I just use the Nightly Tester Tools add-on, which basically ignores the add-on compatibility check. I upgraded to 3.6 and 5 of my add-ons were not compatible, ran the Nightly Tester Tools add-on and now everything works again.

/heads of to download 3.6

High time there was a wee wake up call for FF. I am happy with that so long as Mozilla can keep delivering the goods

Firefox 3.6 ready to (t)roll... smart people stick with IE8
fanboys go for FAILFOX

:wtf:

Sad that the not so smart (didnt want to say stupid) people stay with IE8.

What he said!

Right I have just finished the download and the restart and the customisation

Personas! Nice new touch. So many! Lots of time need to check out all 41,626 of them. For the time being, need to decide between Niagra Falls and McLeod

Why is that?
I tried IE8 and hated it, Firefox is a memory hog but hey they have a bunch of handy add-ons.

So unleash the power of IE8... install the addon IE7pro

Just upgraded to 3.6 and it is awesome.

I don't see the part where the ADblocker thing can temporarily whitelist something like you can in noScript?

You should just install the ultimate add-on for IE8, it makes it into (IMO) the greatest browser ever and gives it a whole lot of new features far outnumbering that ie7pro thing! You can find it here.

I know Chrome sandboxes each tab, but is it contained in multiple processes?

Yeah..it's multiple processes. You can kill off any offending tab without bringing down the whole house.
