Do App Tabs use a lot of memory?

I like the concept of App Tabs, but with my browsing habits I don't know how many I'll be able to use without experiencing a computer slowdown. How much memory do tabs take up? And how does Firefox handle them?

I can't imagine that states themselves take up much memory at all; they seem to be shortcuts for arrays of properties (visible, alpha, etc) for objects that would exist in some form or another anyway. Of course, if you have a 10GB component in one state, it would be the object itself that takes up the memory. Just a guess.

My saved messages are using a lot of memory. How do I free up the memory?

My saved imessages are using a lot of memory (3.1GB) on my iphone. How can I free up the memory?

This is when I go to "usage" and it lists all of the memory used by certain apps. Messages is the largest, and I swipe to the left to open it and it says that "saved messages" are using all of it. There is no option to do anything at this screen.

Check for 'others' in iTunes against your iPhone.
Restore from a previous backup to reclaim some of it.
Still want more, Restore in iTunes, setup as New.

Safari 2.0.4 - Uses a lot of memory ??

Hello,
I own an Intel iMac MA200.
I noticed after Safari's 2.0.4 update that it uses a lot of memory, sometimes even as much as 200MB
The cure I found is to restart Safari.
Sometimes, I need to even Force Quit it.
When I finish using my iMac, and close the Safari windows but let it keep running (red button), go to sleep, and in the morning check how much memory it takes, it's more then 100MB,
I suspect there is a memory leak with Safari 2.0.4
My OS X version is 10.4.8.
I wonder if there is a known problem with Safari, and if there will be a new update released soon (2.0.5 ?) that will solve this problem, because I didn't have this problem with 2.0.3 .
Thanks in advance,
Idan Mashaal.

Hey !
Thanks for the post!
Sience the Gmail upgrade, Safari stopped being my default browser.
I'm using JCraig's optimized nightly builds for Camino (1.2+)
They seem very memory friendly and Intel Optimized.

I really hope Apple will fix the memory leak and Gmail fix there new interface (the little option button next to the new reply deosn't work - even with WebKit nightly) ASAP - sience SafariBlock and Saft doesn't work well with WebKit Nightly.
I miss my Safari

I'm not sure what you mean by registering classes and functions. Have you tried running Adobe Scout on the SWF, it might give more info about what is taking up so much memory: http://gaming.adobe.com/technologies/scout/

Flash player 11.3.300.262 is using a lot of memory

Since updating flash a few days ago the plugin has been using a lot more memory than usual. Normally it uses between 150MB to 200MB, but now i have seen it use up to 900MB.
I've noticed that memory use increases by 5MB or more when navigating through a video until i have to terminate the plugin because of the ridiculous amount of memory used.

Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.

My ituneshelper.exe is using a lot of memory.

My ituneshelper.exe is using a lot of memory. I-tunes is not running and my I-pod is not attached.

ScanToPCActivationApp.exe is using a lot of memory even though the printer is off.

ScanToPCActivationApp.exe is using a lot of memory even though the printer is off.
Upon computer boot up, Task Manager shows it is using 45mb, and after researching this topic using IE, 10 minutes later it now shows it is using 74 mg, although it did go down to 33 mg a few minutes later, then back up to 51 mg a few minutes after that.
Is there a way to keep it from using so much memory when the printer is turned off?.
I am running Windows 7 on a Samsung Series 7 laptop and my printer is an HP 8600 All-in-one. I do use ePrintCenter occasionally, and also have a MacBook Pro (running Mountain Lion), and iPhone 4 (running the latest IOSupdate) and all devices connect to the printer wirelessly.
Please let me know if there is more info that you require. Thank you in advance!

Why is firefox 7b using a lot more memory and cpu on my computer?

I'm trying firefox 7 beta in a debian squeeze box. It is using a lot of RAM and CPU compared to previous releases of firefox(I've tried disabling all plugins and add-ons, not a big improvement). In the follow link here is a summary from about:memory, websites tabs opened at that time and the usage of % mem and cpu of my system: http://pastebin.com/8ji1gmLk
I'm using firefox on all my computers for a while now. So changing the browser is not an option for me now.
It did crash few times when loading a lot of tabs. Please let me know if there is another information that would be useful for fixing this. Thanks

Is it using a significant amount more resources than 6.0 did?
I noticed 6.0 is a VAST resource hog over 5.0 and earlier. It's a very bad flaw in the new version, and has a lot of people upset.
What has me curious is whether this is a new resource problem or whether it was present in 6.0 and you are just not noticing it.
One suggestion: Don't run BETA versions of ANY software on "all your machines". Not when rolling back the version is not an option. That's generally a bad idea, since beta versions are likely to have bugs.
With FF, now, I would never let it automatically update. I don't trust their new update policies, so I would suggest you turn "auto updates" to OFF, and do it manually, only after you hear the new release is stable, which we know 6.0 is NOT.

Why does a group of App Tabs used as home page "double" when Firefox is re-started?

I'm using Firefox 4, and have set a group of tabs (some pinned using App Tab, others as normal tabs) as my home page.
When I start Firefox, the tabs pinned using App Tab appear twice, as a pinned tab and as a normal tab.
Is there a setting I'm missing? Is it possible to have a group of pinned tabs + regular tabs as initial page?

The problem is that if you have, say, three pinned app tabs set as the home page, most (but not all) of the time when FF4 starts, it'll open up SIX tabs, the original three PLUS three identical (but unpinned) tabs. Personally, I have five, so my FF4 starts with TEN tabs - not what I want.
If I unpin the tabs, FF4 behaves as expected.
It happens with Ubuntu as well as Windows versions.

A process named "update.exe *32" and description is "Firefox" keeps using a lot of memory and cpu; the longer forefox is on, the worse it gets. How to prevent?

using Windows 7, firefox 15.0.1
This process uses more and more memory and CPU, sometimes there are several of these processes running. If I kill these processes, it doesn't seem to affect the utilization of Firefox. Then the process slowly starts to use more and more memory and CPU all over again.
This happens all the time, every time I use Firefox.

I do not have a ComObjects folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files. That is not part of Firefox.
wscript.exe is a utility included with Windows to run scripts at the system level. It generally is not used by major programs. If update.exe is starting up with Windows, you may be able to find the script that wscript.exe is running using [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx Autoruns].
It definitely sounds viral. I suggest deleting the update.exe file, although Windows might prevent you from doing that until you kill all related processes. And if you have a persistent infection, the file may be restored or re-downloaded.
It might be easiest to seek assistance from a forum more dedicated to malware cleanups such as the following:

3GB Uses a Lot More Memory?

I had an 8GB Original iPhone. Had hoped to get 16GB 3G, none left, so got 8GB. On my own phone I had 1.7 GB free. Synced new one with a few apps (have checked - dont use much memory). Im disappointed to see in 3G only 292MB left.
Does the 3G OS etc take up a lot more of the memory?
Am really happy with the phone apart from this ....

The iphone is subject to the same gigabyte/gibibyte conversion that hard drives are: you lose about 7% of the stated capacity.
just as your 500gb drive only has around 465gb available, a 16gb iphone will only have 14.88 available.
another ~230mb is taken for the version of os x that runs on iphones/ipod touches, and you are left with about 14.5 available.
these are all approximate since a 16gb iphone may actually have 15.9 or 16.1gb depending on which manufacturer apple chose for the chips and i'm using a round 7% for the conversion.
i remember an old lacie portable hd of mine that was marketed as 18gb, but was a 16.9gb disk. after the conversion, it was only 15.5 or so. now that was a rip off...
