I'm starting to get fed up with firefox randomly spiking to 1.3m-1.5m
I have no idea what all that bullshit is all about.

They all spike quite a bit... if you're fed up with lag/crashes just from browsing the web then it might be time for an upgrade, hardware-wise.

RAM is so ridiculously dirt cheap there's no reason to not have enough these days unless you're still on a DDR2 motherboard.

I'm working on the total upgrade, but for the time being I was hoping someone had a suggestion as to something better if they found a solution.

I mean, I have 8GB, but Opera never uses more than ~500MB. It even has a setting that limits the amount of memory it is allowed to use.

Chrome uses as much as Firefox, but doesn't have the same response/crash issues Firefox has. Much much better.

Have you happened to use Opera as well? I am just curious because I have always been a firefox fanboy myself and never really branced out to try the others. I'd just like a decent comparison.

Care to tell me some advantages besides the obvious ones?

Chrome definitely seems faster and hardly ever crashes. When it runs it splits it up into multiple processes which helps it run more smoothly.

Ok thanks. I'd still like to see an Opera user state some benefits as well.
Really appreciate the help everyone.
