    Firefox using too much RAM

    Hey,

    I use Firefox as my main browser, but it uses a lot of resources without doing nothing. Is there any other web browser that's more resource wise than Firefox?

    It used to be a paid browser for ad-free, free version with ads, but now they've released an ad-free free version which is REALLY nice

    Ok, confirmed, Opera uses half the RAM Firefox uses!

    When he said plugins I think he meant extentions.

    Try Opera?
