KM using twice the memory FF does

Hey you guys,

I opened the same tabs in Firefox and K-Meleon, and according to my task manager, KM used twice the memory FF did. How the hell is that possible?

It's not that fast, either. It's been crashing lately, I can't open instagram without lag.

I was so excited about this browser and really do not want to give it up. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

What OS?

x86 or x64?

Had you count all the ram used? (FF can load separate plugin-container process)

Maybe new Firefox runs in multiprocess mode?

Finally, what are the pages you've load?

uh, I apologize, it seems I had some kind of parasite/virus. I just opened both browsers and empty, KM is about 10 times smaller than FF.

Now with two tabs open to FF's zero, it's still more than half as small.

But thank you for getting back to me with the quickness!
