Mozilla & Gecko clones "Today, the Mozilla organization is preparing to release the first release candidate for version 2 of their popular Firefox web browser. Firefox 2 RC1 is available in binary form for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X (the latter a Universal Binary for both PPC and Intel systems). The Windows download comes in at 5.7 MB and runs on Windows 98, ME, NT 4, 2000, or XP. It ran without issue on my copy of Windows Vista RC1."

Ever looked at virtual memory usage?

After a few days of running my Firefox never goes below 200 MB (on windows, never look on Linux, there is runs much smoother). I hope this RC1 does a better job ;)

Hmm.. no, haven't done that. But probably akin to that of Firefox on Linux. Approx. 50-100 no matter what I do. And of course the occasional crashes when hitting extreme flash-sites.. which is one of several reasons to avoid them ;)
