![]() ![]() Rather than a complaint about it, It decided to fix it. In a memory leak, you’ll see the memory usage keep increasing the longer the program is open/in-use and this is exactly what happens with Firefox. It’s quite normal for Firefox to be sucking up over 250MB of memory right off the bat. Although Mozilla Firefox's memory usage improved a little over the last few years, it still uses a lot of memory a little more than I feel comfortable with. Maybe one day, but until then, Firemin will lend a friendly hand.With Firemin you can easily and dramatically optimize your Web Browser memory! One of the biggest “improvements” that Mozilla claims are the Firefox memory usage, in particular, the vanquishing of memory leaks. Firemin has not received any negative reviews and no side effects like browsers crashing have been reported, “knock on wood”.Įven though Mozilla keeps claiming that they fixed their memory-leaking issues, it seems like this is not completely true. Firemin does not contain any malware and actually do decrease Firefox memory usage, up to 95% (under 1MB in some cases). There are similar “Firefox memory boosters” available however, most of them are frauds (work mostly contain spyware and malware) or work using the Placebo function (if you think it will work, it will). Using this function will sometimes result in a slight performance decrease measured in milliseconds, but I do mean slight, the chance of you noticing the performance decrease is almost zero.įiremin is not one of a kind. For those of you who are a little more technically minded, you can read more about it here. Other words, tells Firefox to give back some of the system memory it’s hanging on to. If you expected it to be complicated, we are truly sorry for disappointing you.Force FireFox into submission and reclaim your memory.Ī small application that will eliminate all memory leaks in Firefoxįiremin uses a safe API function called EmptyWorkingSet that basically forces the process (in this case Firefox) to use less memory. To use Firemin you will need to unzip firemin.zip, double click on Firemin.exe and allow Firemin babysit Firefox. We tweaked our memory optimization engine a little and applied it to Firefox (including Firefox extensions) to fight those nasty memory leaks. Firemin will attempt to eliminate most Mozilla Firefox memory leaks. ![]()
