My Firefox left running over night takes up over 1.3Gb of RAM. I can tell you things slow down…..lots, even on a Quad Core with 4Gb of Ram and 2TB hard disk space. This fix seems to be a message from heaven, an angel has landed and fixed Firefox. Even if it frees up a little ram (It has) it stopped my PC stuttering to a halt. Thank you..you have earned your wings…but don’t be like Icarus and fly to close to the sun…one step at a time yeah!!

Close but no cigar. It works but after a few seconds the memusage goes back to previous level.
For example: before: 160,000K after, after minimize: 30,000K, seconds later: 150,000 and rising.

Using FF3 and not working either, but maybe it’s a Vista 64 issue as I’m sure it works on my XP machine at home.
