With the help of <a href="http://prometheusxt.blogspot.com/2007/12/get-your-incompatible-firefox-addons.html" target="_blank">this tool</a>, I managed to install (or rather, unlock) all my addons (80% of them were incompatible). so, this is the time to put Firefox 3 to the ultimate test. I loaded up tabs; lots of them; kept for about couple of hours. These are the tabs which were open: (~35 tabs)<img src="http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/anushand/Untitled-2.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Here's the memory usage from the task manager: (note that I don't use a pagefile, so Firefox's memory manager has to do a lot of things to clear up the unused RAM. If a pagefile was there, the Operating System would have taken care of part of that process)<img src="http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/anushand/FirefoxRAMusage.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />MUCH MUCH BETTER PERFORMANCE!!! NO SLOW DOWNS WITH ALL THOSE TABS!!! SIMPLY AWESOME!!!</blockquote>
