I am a VC++ developer so I am more concerned about the application"s memory and resource problem. I just made a simply test for Google Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer, the result shows some interesting data.
Testing Environment
OS: Windows Vista Enterprise
Memory: 4 GB
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
Browser: Google Chrome 1.0.154.48, Firefox 3.0, Internet Explorer 7.0
The testing report
- I started Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, they didn't open any web pages at that time. The GDI object and number and memory size of the browsers:
| Browser | GDI Object | | Memory (KB) | |
| Firefox |
68 | |
16860 | |
| Google Chrome |
78 | |
29708 | |
| Internet Explorer |
342 | |
18774 | |
- I open 45 same web pages in each browser, when all documents are completely loaded and initialized:
| Browser | GDI Object | | Memory (KB) | |
| Firefox |
680 | |
67778 | |
| Google Chrome |
212 | |
56744 | |
| Internet Explorer |
2155 | |
336032 | |
- Then I closed all documents and keep each browser is idle:
| Browser | GDI Object | | Memory (KB) | |
| Firefox |
319 | |
52228 | |
| Google Chrome |
75 | |
35416 | |
| Internet Explorer |
642 | |
141236 | |

I have a very different figure for Firefox. It seems certain people I know have this problem but not the majority.
Currently Firefox is consuming 552,932K of memory. With the exact same windows open my friends report it having around 128,000K... Their's goes up to 140,000K tops and mine peaks at 856,000K... Simply way to big! Almost a gig of memory!
I submit bug reports and so do my friends... This has been happening since 1.0... Here we are at 3.x and still nothing...
