I'm not thumbing this down because of a dislike of Firefox or anything, but I'm thumbing it down because this doesn't actually fix anything.

The trim_on_minimize value writes data to disc when you minimize Firefox to the taskbar. Everything is brought back when you bring Firefox back to the front.

this option allows windows to SWAP out the memory. to the swap file. its still using the same amount of memory. still, good for people with tiny amounts of ram.

Wonderful tip to temporarily reduce firefox memory usage. It eats away at my memory, and it's good to know I can fix that, even just a little bit.

From the page: "Now, this is by no means a REAL fix for the Firefox memory leak, but it certainly does appear to help it quite a bit. This little fix will move Firefox to your hard drive when you minimize it, and as a result it will take up less than 10MB of memory while minimized. "

Now, this is by no means a REAL fix for the Firefox memory leak, but it certainly does appear to help it quite a bit. This little fix will move Firefox to your hard drive when you minimize it, and as a result it will take up less than 10MB of memory while minimized. So far, from my experiences with using this today, when you maximize Firefox it will obviously increase the memory usage. However, it does not seem to go back up to the insane amount that it was at before minimizing it.
