[09:24] <rmg51> Morning
[11:16] <lazyPower> \o
[11:21] <rmg51> o/
[11:21] <rmg51> bye
[12:10] <teddy-dbear> Morning peoples, critters and everything else
[12:38] <JonathanD> Morning.
[15:29] <ChinnoDog> Why does Firefox get slower and slower over time until it I kill it and start it again? This always happens. It isn't using a lot of CPU or I/O though.
[15:30] <ChinnoDog> Also I have plenty of memory available and no swap file.
[15:37] <jthan> Firefox sucks.
[15:37] <jthan> I had to switch to chromium
[15:38] <jthan> Because it just keeps eating memory and it's slow
[15:40] <ChinnoDog> The last time I ran Chrome on Linux it had severe memory management issues. It was eating all my memory with just a few tabs open.
[15:41] <ChinnoDog> Firefox seems better able to handle having a bazillion tabs open.
[15:41] <jthan> chromium
[15:41] <jthan> not chrome
[15:42] <ChinnoDog> They are from the same codebase. Do they not behave similarly?
[15:42] <jthan> idk. chromium has never given me that issue
[15:42] <jthan> and I'm a tab hoarder
[15:43] <ChinnoDog> hmm. Perhaps I will try it again then.
[15:52] <lazyPower> Google Chrome forked when they did blink
[15:53] <lazyPower> its no longer sharing a code base with chromium afaik
[15:53] <lazyPower> ChinnoDog: have you filed a bug on mozillas bug tracker? Might be worth while to do so and get some feedback from upstream. They might have some ninja features you can enable to help with the MM, or not be aware of the leak.
[16:21] <ChinnoDog> Some googling shows that everyone is well aware that this problem occurs. There are even add-ons to manage it.
