On the other hand Chrome eats RAM like there's no tomorrow on my system, while the Firefox' footprint is pretty much contained. Different systems, different experiences.

(Two different machines, both Windows 10)

Linux too. Chrome was eating all my ram to the point where my laptop was dogging down horribly, sometime even swapping (excruciating).

FF is fast and much lighter on RAM. My laptop is fast again. Thanks, Mozilla!
