I thought Firefox was supposed to be more resource efficient than Chrome? I just migrated, imported the same tabs I have on Brave, installed part of, not even all the extensions I have on Brave and yet it uses more than double the ram?

install auto tab discard

perhaps dont have millions of tabs open? perhaps dont have dozens of extensions qhen you only need 1 (one)? perhaps buy more ram lol
>>
>>109434152
I didn't need to do it on Brave though
>>109434155
I'll have as many tabs and extensions as I need
>>
>imported the same tabs
How many tabs do you have open to begin with? You're supposed to close them after every use to prevent memory leaks iirc.
>>
>>109434181
Around 30 at all times which might increase as the day goes on
>>
>>109434170
you should've done it on brave too
>>
>>109434140
No one has ever claimed that you disingenuous faggot all browsers are RAM hogs extensions like ublock which are essential nowadays make it even worse not to mention the dogshit jeeted web development that's standard nowadays
>>
>>109434140
firefox has terrible memory management
this always happens on both linux and windows
thats why i dont use it
i still use brave
>>
>>109434140
I'm finding similar results on linux. I was having performance issues with firefox stuttering so I installed brave to test. Turns out it wasn't really a firefox issue, my nvidia GPU was being lazy and refusing to leave the lowest power state unless I loaded up a game or something, and setting a minimum power state removed the stutter. But even without that setting brave is significantly smoother despite the VRAM clock sitting at just 405MHz. And it does seem to consistently use 25-50% less memory.

Assuming the same holds true for other chromium browsers, it appears blink is simply superior to gecko.

OP got a free Brave license for shilling on /g/.
