Chromefags will actually defend this

Never said a botnet would be easy to run.
Is that Windows XP?
>>55192337
I usually have 8 tabs open at most. And I have more than enough ram.
So how's the shitty Firefox performance going for you?
good thing I have 32gb of memory
>>55192337
Why is your XP so bloated?
>>55192438
firefox performs great
>>55192416
>>55192454
not my computer, image is from google image search
Why do people think it's necessary to have over 9001 tabs open?
>>55192337
Unused ram is wasted ram
>>55192337
>have one tab open in firefox
>it hangs even though you have 15gb memory
go away firefag
>>55192479
of my 25~ tabs open, around 20 of them are 4chan threads
firefox hitches and slows to shit when I open more than like 50 tabs
I wish it would just use more ram and perform better.
>tabs = memory usage
This myth needs to die
I wished that Firefox was using all my 8 gigs of ram instead of being slow using only 1.5
unused ram is wasted ram
>unused memory
>good
Dumb faggot
1.2k tabs over 3 windows, IDK...
>>55192494
Nice try pajeet. Unused ram is free or cached.
>>55192517
>This is the fault of firefox and not fucktarded web "designers" cramming 30mb of bloat into webpages that barely serve their purpose unless the purpose was to "give an experience" and not to "inform"
>BUT MUH SCROLLTO SLIDESHOWS
>BUT MUH ANIMATED EVERYTHING
>ITS MODEEERRN USSSSEEEER EXPERIEEEEENCfuck
Seriously fuck those guys
We need a better central autorhoty over the web kicking faggots like that out and back to cable TV adverts where they belong.
>>55192534
Yes chrome is a combination of the OS and the user and can tell when another program you value more than chrome wants that RAM
Actually you have to kill tabs yourself
>>55192599
Why can't websites be nice and simple like this?

>>55192588
>Unused ram is free
no shit
>or cached
that doesn't make any sense
>>55192685
well, wangding task manager uses the word "cached" for it, which is fucking confusing.
As we here in the sane *nix would say, it's caches. And it basically is all that "free" memory used up to keep frequently/recently used files in memory, so your programs wouldn't need to [slowly] read all that shit from the disk each and every single fucking time.
That said, having extra mamory to spare acts more or less like a fully automatic "ramdisk". Which also implies that having *free* free memory is wasteful and bad.
>>55192337
>guys look, my ____ brand spoon can ram more shit into my mouth than your ____ brand spoon
Congratulations, literally no one cares
chrome didnt expect unorganized faggots to be using their browser, they were hoping firefox and explorer would catch their eye.
100tabs in Chrome would be like 20gb or something.
I rarely have more than 10 and it is like 3gb (youtube, normiebook and so on)
>>55192658
Imagine being a web dev. Now imagine everyone gets convinced that they need to keep it simple. Oh wait you're suddenly not a web dev anymore as there's hardly any demand for your profession now.
TL;DR because web devs want to keep their job positions.
>>55192520
Have you ever thought about your priorities in life Anon?
>>55192851
I drown that shit out with xanax and video games
I'd rather an app pick up the memory it needs like chrome than pretend it doesn't need as much as it does and hangs constantly
kinda related
does anyone know a way to tell firefox to unload all pages while keeping the tabs open ?
similar to killing and restoring ff, it only reloads contents of tabs you open.
>>55192658
Requesting the improved version.
>>55192944
you mean the terrible hipsterized version
I think chrome just uses what it has access to.
I can run 20 tabs on my Chromebook with 2gb of ram and it uses 1.6gb
20 tabs on my t42 and it uses 1gb of 1.5gb
20 tabs on my shitpost deluxe and it uses 4gb of 8
>>55192944
This IS the better version. No bullshit. The other one is half-assed. Not being consistent and using no styles, but only using so few styles that it still looks almost the same.
>>55192337
i just use firefox for tabGroups extension, there is no such extension on chrome. I tried to find something similar, but everything sucks compared to it.
>>55192658

it actually is better
but both sites are way better than modern shit
>>55193643
love uMatrix because of that
can chrome do this?
>>55192337
>have 800 tabs open in firefox
why
>>55192441
this to be honest famalam. memory is cheap, did you honestly fall for the "8gb is enough" meme?
>>55195474
i did fall for that meme
my PC is 4 years old though
>memory is cheap
32GB is $150, 16GB is $90
>>55192557
>>55192494
my physical memory usage in Task Manager is 92%, and CPU usages is 40%. half of that is due to Chrome
>>55192441
hello antony
>>55192474
firefox performs like absolute ass in some cases.
>>55192599
Still lags like fuck on lightweight web pages too.
I wanted to stick with firefox. I tried. But on all of my machines it runs like absolute horseshit.
>>55192337
>800 tabs
>100 tabs
Do most of you really open that many?
>>55195614
Canada?
>>55197947
if you rarely play video games, and have no hobbies, then all you do is browse the web.
the numbers in the OP were as of last week. today i have 300 tabs in firefox (1GB of memory) and 20 in chrome (1.5GB).
>>55198091
yes, those prices are in Canadian dollars
>>55192337
>using xp
>in the current year
gas yourself.
yea, but firefaux doesnt work
>>55192520
why dont you just use the thread watcher?
If you have more than 10 tabs open at any time you need to reevaluate your life
>>55193855
It's only better because your browser's default styles are shit. Pages shouldn't need to ship with their own CSS, that defeats the purpose of semantic markup.
>>55198906
Fucking how.
Are you a wizard?
>>55192599
>it's not the browser's fault
>It's the webdevs' fault
>sure, other browsers can handle the new internet and Firefox can't
>b-b-but it's not firefox's fault
>>55195445
Can Firefox open images in new tabs
If I get more than 15 I close shit until I have like 3-4. Having more than 20 open is insane.
>>55199447
I can't into 4chanX because I go on other imageboards and it fucks them
>>55200293
4chanx is only supposed to affect 4chan.org/* and boards.4chan.org/*
>>55192658
It's all about money these days. If your site isn't glamorous then people won't visit.
>>55192337
those 800 tabs are not actually loaded so you probably have less tabs opened than in chrome
>>55200267
lol, ``images'' are links so almost every browser that uses tab technology can do that.
>>55192337
You still use XP?
here is my chrome tabs from a week ago
been moving everything not mission critical to pale moon though, so i'm down to 600... shit takes a long time to migrate
>>55192454
Hey man you don't just come out and say that to somebody you just met.
>>55192337
>have desktop open
>5.3gb of ram
>>55201918
What are bookmarks?
>>55202362
yea but i found bookmarks never get used, once tabs came around never not use them.
>>55192355
upvoted! XD
i love it that /g/ is so insanely hypocritical
>google is a botnet waaaaahhh!!!
