Tune up your Firefox !

Hello happy Firefox users !

More reasons for you to be happy ! Try out Firetune.
It has optimized my browsing speed to more than 500%.

Try it. Go on right now !

Sometimes it happens that as Firefox takes up a big share of your RAM, other simultaneous runnig programs jumble up with this on their share of RAM and end up crashing the system. This is called memory leaking.

This is how you fix this “memory leak” problem. It’s not actually a leak, it just doesn’t flush the cache it has:

type about:config into the location bar, press enter, right click any line, choose “new”>”integer”, paste this into the dialogue that appears:

browser.cache.memory.capacity

click okay, specify the amount in kb (about 20000 should do) in the next dialogue that appears, restart firefox.

Happy browsing ;)
