Glad to see that they are taking care of what needs to be. Also happy that they are improving in areas the competition cannot compete. I love the fact that I do not have as many problems using Firefox as I did when I used internet explorer. Agreed that if this works out that the number of users will triple in a short matter of time.

I think that is good for Firefox to use less memory. I found that the only reason why I cant get a lot more people using the software is all purely because it uses too much of their system resources. I’m sure that if they successfully plug this hole, the number of users will surely shoot up.

So that explains why my Firefox browser hangs up sometimes. I didn’t know this but I’ve noticed that it is sometimes slower than IE7. When I’m doing disk clean ups using tune up utilities Firefox has the largest space used. I hope version 3 will be out soon and will be able to solve this problem.

I’m a big fan of Firefox, a very big one. I was very excited when I heard the new 3.0 release…so far in this beta version there are no extensions available and that’s not ok. It’s more stable indeed and looks good to, but I really need FireBug and FireFTP and all other web-development extensions. I hope they will release them in the same time with the full 3.0.

My RAM usage with FireFox is HORRID on 2.0. It runs almost into 1GB’s. Amazing that I have to dedicated 1GB of RAM to Firefox. I haven’t upgraded to the beta because my plug ins aren’t supported yet.

Looking forward to the final release. I found the current version so bad I immediately upgraded to the 3.0 beta and so far find it much more stable. The final release should be even better.

Quote: “When Firefox 3.0 comes out in its final stages, these issue should become a thing of the past.” About time honestly. I love Firefox, but damn if it doesn’t get annoying from time to time. Good read.
