Is there a browser with session save that won't rape my RAM? I'm fucking tired of Firefox/Palemoon/Waterfox using 5GB for less than 90 tabs.
>>54302568
>90 tabs
Holy shit what is wrong with you. I never use more than 20.
>>54302568
>90 tabs
Boomer spotted.
>>54302580
>>54302591
Fuck you queers, 4chan shitposting alone requires half that.
>>54302568
Do you need the RAM for something else?
>>54302568
What sort of addons does your Firefox/whatever have in it? Mine handles a shitload of tabs without eating that much memory. It eventually gets up there but then I restart it and it restores the session and resets the memory leak.
>>54302568
Chrome is probably better at multitabbed browsing that FaggotFox derivatives.
>>54302632
pfft. It does give the opportunity to reset memory leaks on one tab by closing it since it's all multiprocess. But it starts to choke and requires hacky extensions that unload some of the tabs to handle anything like the number Firefox will.
What kind of poorfag cares about a measly 5 GB?
>>54302632
It's actually worse, I've tried both Chrome and Chromium.
>>54302621
Yes, tons of multitasking.
>>54302623
Only sessionsaver because the built-in session saving is shit.
>>54302663
>Yes, tons of multitasking.
Such as?
>>54302673
Enough to use almost all 16GB of RAM.
>>54302602
Use the thread watcher you stupid faggot.
>>54302659
One who hasn't fallen for the 16 GB meme.
>>54302663
>Only sessionsaver because the built-in session saving is shit.
I strongly suggest uBlock. No matter what browser you use, ads on the modern web will sap your CPU and RAM without very many tabs.
Note that I say uBlock and not ABP. ABP can eat a lot of RAM since it loads its filters again into each iframe in a page.
>>54302580
>>54302591
p..please kill me
>>54302690
Thread watcher is less convenient, a crutch for poorfags and mobilefags who don't have enough resources to just run a window with a tab for each thread.
>>54302694
>only 16
I only wish my motherboard supported more than 32 haha
>>54302568
it will use as much ram as possible.. what do you think ram is for ?
>>54302703
Yeah. That's what's known as "too much". Especially on a system too pathetic to handle Aero.
>>54302708
If you're not a poorfag then buy more RAM.
>>54302694
>16 GB meme
your thread is literally about a memory problem, but then you're calling it a meme?
how the fuck do you use 5gigs even with 90 tabs? do you have full trap porn vids buffered on each one?
>>54302694
I wish I had fallen for the 32GB meme tbhfam.
Will try uBlock.
>>54302703
Finally, someone with the exact same problem as me.
>>54302719
Why are modern browsers such RAM-raping bloated beasts? I remember in 2008 Firefox could open up to 800 tabs using less than 2GB of RAM, no problem.
>>54302719
Other fucking programs, and disk cache. Some people use their OS as more than a container for their browser.
>>54302720
who the fuck leaves aero on, friend?
>>54302733
guess what ? if needed the OS will swap those pages and free ram for your other programs you moron
>>54302746
Yes, and then those programs will take ages to come back when you return to them. Then your tabs will take forever to come back up when you switch to them.
Swapping sucks and should be a last resort, not the norm.
>>54302730
That ain't the OP, I wish I had bought more RAM instead of buying 4 stupid stick of 4GB. Now I can't upgrade without raping my wallet.
>how the fuck do you use 5gigs even with 90 tabs? do you have full trap porn vids buffered on each one?
I don't watch porn on my browser, I download it to avoid bloat, normal sites do enough damage already. But even if I did, it's 2016 I mean come on, a browser should be able to handle that without going apeshit.
>>54302754
so you are actually complaining about being to stupid to get enough ram for your needs ?
>>54302731
>Why are modern browsers such RAM-raping bloated beasts?
because everything is, because it can afford to be
Your os is this way too. if you have a lot of spare ram it will use it, to load commonly used stuff faster.
>>54302770
Not the OP, fuck I wish this shithole had poster IDs.
>>54302754
>Swapping sucks and should be a last resort, not the norm.
it isn't the norm.
neither is having 5gbs of tabs open
>>54302770
No, I'm complaining about programs that grow to whatever size of memory you give them.
>>54302804
funny, because you sound like someone that belongs on reddit.
>>54302809
and still you are complaining about your tabs loading to slow because other programs getting the ram ?
you sound like an actual retard
>>54302770
>being to stupid
>>54302839
Yes. Because the motherfucking browser ate all the RAM to begin with instead of garbage collecting periodically like a sane thing.
You people can't be serious with this 20 tabs 90 tabs bullshit.
Why would you ever need more than 5 or so?
>>54302941
i have about ~10 tabs open for each one of my classes, all my github issues assigned to me, about 20 tabs with refernce material, etc
>>54302941
Because I don't want to waste time and bandwidth reloading a page every time I want to look at it?
>>54302941
>>54302997
>>54302974
90 tabs is too little for me. Fucking normalfags and their single tab of twitter, single tab of kikebook and single tab of plebbit.
>>54302703
> 1176 tabs
> 771 tabs
> 1332 tabs
Jesus Christ. How the fuck does anybody open more than 200 tabs?
>>54303039
how does anyone have more than 2?
>>54303039
>>54303109
>>54302580
How does anyone have less than 5? Enlighten me, normalfag casual weenies.
>>54303130
Because when I open a tab I take in the information and close the tab instead of drifting off onto something else like some stupid kid who hasn't taken his ADD meds.
>>54303150
I'm not a huge number of tabs-fag but I do occasionally open something and plan on reading it later or something only to find it's still open a week later and I never read it
>>54302568
OP here. Disregard this thread, I found a magical program that reduced by 60% the memory usage. PRAISE JESUS
