I run firefox 24/7 bit once a week I have to stop / restart to clear the build up in memmory after restart ram has dropped by 1Gig why
Over a week of use you can see the memory level steadily increasing over time on the ram monitors, by simply restarting Firefox and reloading all the pages I use as standard the memory level has dropped by 1Gig and does not instantly rise again but slowly over the week. Does this mean that there is a leaky program leaving unused buts in the ram, or is it just all the add on programs that you can not get rid of not clearing until the restart?
Thanks
