Re: Firefox 29

Well, take this with a grain of salt as it's still alpha, but it seems more stable than V30, as a lot of the frequent freezes and crashes I had with V30 are gone. That said I only used V30 when it was in alpha too, so they may have been fixed by the beta or final.

Memory usage seems to be improved if what people are reporting in this thread are anything to go by, however I haven't directly compared it to V29 or V30 myself because I hadn't checked until people mentioned it here. I rarely check memory usage because I have enough RAM to not really care.

My desktop has 24GB of RAM and Firefox, being 32-bit, will crash itself long before it can even use a quarter of that. That said, I find it still slows down to the point of unusability before you've opened enough tabs to fill up it's maximum memory usage...

... But yes, it did lose all my tabs once recently, following a system-wide bluescreen, which is something I'm used to Chrome doing...
