Safari is using all my free Ram and resources

Ever since Safari 5.1 and the emergance of "Safari Web Content" safari now takes sometimes up to 2GB of Ram! Thats more than every other program running combined! I am then left with ~10-50 mb of ram to share with Dreamweaver Photoshop and several other programs.
Once it bogs down all my resources it will require me to reload all my pages before I can use any of my pages. Once it returns its still using just about as much resources.
-First of all it is not my extenstions or plug-ins, (I never had any till just recently)
-I am running safari on just a few windows on several desktops.
-I almost never experience this amount of ram usage before 5.1
I have seen others experience this and the only viable solution seems to be "just close down safari and open it back up"
I am developing for the web and keep several pages open on multiple desktops for different reasons, when I close down Safari all my windows from all my other desktops (at least now safari saves my old windows) and opens them all on one desktop and taking sometimes nearly a minute to do so.
It has been two versions now since 5.1 (5.1.1, 5.1.2) and little has been done in regards to (in my opinion) this very serious issue. (there might have been slight decreases in ram usage but if so I dont really notice it)
What can I do (or what is being done) to limit the amount of Ram consumption Safari is allowed to take (adobe programs have this option)

I have the same issue. I see that no one has added to this since March. Does that mean it was address somewhere else? I understand the app is designed to use as much memory as it can grab to make it run better, but when it grabs so much that you start virtual memory thrashing, that's a problem. I have a Mac Mini with 2GB that was barely functional when Safari was running. I just upgraded to 8GB, and it's much better, but Safari still gladly takes half of that memory. I don't see how clearing the cache or history would have anything to do with RAM utilization. I agree this is a real problem.

  • MacPro with10.7.3. running a Python script in terminal I see a : "There is no more application memory available on your startup disk". Python uses 10G of 16G RAM and  VM =238G with 1TB free. Log: macx-swapon FAILED - 12. It only happens with larger inputs

    On my MacPro with10.7.3. while running a Python script in terminal, after a while, in several hours actually,  I see a system message for the Terminal app: "There is no more application memory available on your startup disk". Both RAM and VM appear to be fine at this point, i.e. Python uses only 10G of 16G RAM and  VM =238G with ~1TB free. Log reads: " macx-swapon FAILED - 12" multiple times. Furthermore, other terminal windows can be opened and commands run there. It only happens with larger inputs (text files), but with inputs that are about half the size everything runs smoothly.  So the issue must be the memory indeed, but where to look for the problem/fix?

    Have you tried with the --diag flag for diagnostics? Or changing verbose to 3 to show debug messages? Clearly one of three things is happening;
    1. You ARE running out of disk space, but once it errors out the space is reclaimed if the output file is deleted on error. When it fails, does your output have the content generated up to the point of termination?
    2. The application (Terminal) is allocated memory that you are exceeding
    3. The task within Terminal is allocated memory that you are exceeding
    I don't know anything about what this does but is there a way to maybe run a smaller test run of it? Something that takes 10 minutes? Just to see if it works.

  • Why isn't my iMac using all of my RAM

    Hi,
    I've recently upgraded the RAM in my iMac (System details below) from 4GB to 12GB as it was running a little slow, I have found this has made no difference and at times seems even slower.
    I was doing some work with video files and was converting a video using MPEG Streamclip and so this would be quite a memory intensive task. As it was progressing very slowly I checked my Activity Monitor and it was only using 4.49GB of the memory overall and of that only 97MB seemed to be dedicated to the MPEG Streamclip task.
    Does anyone know why the system isn't using the rest of the RAM that is installed?
    The highest usage process is 'kernal_task' with 838.9MB but I don't know what that is, There are a lot of items in the process list but I don't know how to remove them or even if I can or should remove them?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

  • Photoshop is using 4-6GB of RAM and hanging up

    Since the most recent cc update to 14.1.2 Ps is hanging up on simple tasks such as cropping images. Activity Monitor shows 4-6GB of RAM being used by Ps. This problem does not occur in CS6 which is using under 800 MB of RAM and cropping 200MB files without any problem.
    Can someone make a recommendation on how to remedy this problem?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Celeste

    Hi Mandhir,
    Thanks for getting back to me. Is it common for Ps CC to utilize between
    4-6GB of RAM? My Macbook Pro is maxed out at 8GBŠ Photoshop doesn't leave
    much available at that utilization. CS6 only uses 800MBŠ I've never had a
    problem editing images with that configuration.
    All of the performance settings are optimized to the KB you sent over I
    went through that over the weekend.
    I think I may have found a bug as well in the crop tool. When I changed the
    setting in the crop tool from 'fixed' to 'original' ratio Ps didn't hang up..
    I can repeat the problemŠ
    Set the crop tool to fixed W x H, add only one measurement such as 1600px w,
    leave the height field empty (for example), set res to 96 DPI and then
    cropŠ. Ps will hang up every time.

  • Safari has deleted all my saved passwords, and not saving any I ask!

    Pretty self explanatory...
    But just today, Safari seems to have completely wiped all my saved passwords, and I had a lot saved. The pop up box saying 'Do you want to save this password?' is still coming up when I log into an account somewhere, and even if I select yes, it doesn't save.
    This is rather annoying, considering I'm setting up a forum, and have to be constantly logging in and out of everyone's account, in an attempt to transfer posts.
    Could someone help? Would be really grateful!
    Tom
    Edit: I'm using Safari 7.0.3

    1. Delete Safari .plist file.
         Quit all applications.
         Option click the "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
         Select "Library" from the drop down.
         Library > Preferences >  com.apple.Safari.plist
         Right click on it and select "Move To Trash".
         Restart. Relaunch Safari.
    2. Turn off Extensions, if any.

    Hello, well, i came back home today and noticed that something was using all my upload bandwidth. I closed all the apps and it was still being used. So i opened Activity Monitor and had no idea about what was using all that bandwidth. I just noticed few apps using CPU. I don't know why but i tried to force quit Photostream and it freed my UP bandwidth. I rebooted my MBP and i immediatelly saw about 20kb/s BW usage without any app started. So i checked iCloud preferences and disabled Photo Stream and the BW usage dropped down to 1-2kb/s.
    But why is that? I mean, i had no photo streamed. Aperture and iPhoto had Photostream with 0 photos inside and it was disabled on both. iPhone too. So why if there was no photos to stream it was using my upload bandwidth?

    No.
    Sorry.
    You should keep everything on your computer and always maintain a backup copy.

  • Imac is using all 512mb of ram.

    Hello, I have the Intel Imac 17 inch with 512 mb of ram. Ive had it for about 6-7 months now with no problems whatsoever. Today I was surfing the web looking for themes and such to customize my mac. When I skinned Itunes and restarted it, something strange occured. I recieved a message that said "The iTunes application could not be opened. There is not enough memory available." I thought to myself, thats weird, normally theres never more then half used up. So I opened Activity Monitor and these were the results: Wired: 79.12mb, Active: 270.61mb, Inactive: 152.04mb, Used: 500.41mb, and Free: 14.92mb. I have never experienced this before and am extremely worried that my ram is messed up. The results taken by Activity Monitor were determined by itself and Safari being opened. Please reply quickly, I can not do anything right now.

    Thank you very much for replying so quickly. In this case it was the skin, I had to remove the skin and completely reinstall iTunes. My ram usage is back to where it should be. Although I agree that I need to upgrade ram I will not. I am buying the new Intel core 2 duo 24 inch Imac soon so I just upgrade when I get it. The only thin that I don't get is that peoples automatic response is to upgrade the ram. Well last night when I was having the issue I got frustrated and wanted to test the computers limits. I clicked on every app in the Dock (except iTunes) and with about 30 seconds of lag eevrything opened and ran. Of course it was slower then usual, but 512 mb can handle enough for the average user. I was just curious why everyones response is to upgrade ram.

  • Upgraded to Firefox 4.0 Can see and use all old bookmarks folders and bookmarks, but cannot see any of the old folders when I attempt to bookmark a new page- only see Bookmarks toolbar & Menu and unsorted bookmarks

    Had several bookmarks folders under old Firefox. After upgrade to 4.0 all of these still work via bookmarks menu. Problem is, when I attempt to bookmark a new page and place it in one of my existing bookmarks folders with 4.0, the only folders that Firefox can see are the bookmarks toolbar, bookmarks menu, and unsorted bookmarks. How do I get Firefox to see the old folders so that I can continue to put bokmarked pages in them??

    In the "Edit this Bookmark" window, use the 2nd drop-down button, that is to the right of the "Folder", to open a larger window that will allow more folder to appear. See the sloppy red arrow on the screenshot below.

  • My kids are on my email account.  I want them to now have their own accounts.  Can they still use all of my music and apps?

    I have my kids' iPods on my account.  I want to put them on their own accounts.  Is there a way I can do this without having them lose all of the stuff on my account?  And can they still sync things that I download if they're using my computer?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your children are under 13, you should open 2 new accounts for yourself and let them use it. They can use these ID's for iCloud and so have their own email! contacts! calendars etc, but still share your original ID for iTunes for apps, music, etc. You can continue to sync them with your computer.

  • ITunes not using all speakers (4 surround and a woofer)

    iTunes will not play music on all speakers. I know at one time it did, but it's like it does it when it wants to. Even if the song doesn't have surround or anything, I'd like it to play from all speakers. ***?

    Not an expert in this, I don't have surround speakers.
    Go into Quicktime settings and verify it is set to use surround instead of stereo.

  • Recent xserver using a lot more RAM and is noticably slower.

    To save battery life I lock both the graphics card and CPU into there lowest frequency settings. This was fine with little performance impact. However after a recent X server upgrade it has started using substantially more ram (around 5~ meg, use to be around 1). Also Firefox, and even Xterm and Vim now scroll very badly. Is there anything I can do about this, without raising the CPU/GFX frequency.
    Thanks.

    Bump.

  • Will I loose all my free apps and music if I update itunes to newest version..

    Will I loose all my apps n music if I update itunes to the newest version out? Please advise the last time there was an update I lost everything on my ipod touch. And I dont wanna loose everything on my iphone as well! Please advise..

    You shouldn't lose anything from your computer.  You should always make sure that your backup copy of your computer ( including your itunes library) is up to date before any update.
