This May Help Your Firefox Memory Leak.
I found this hack on Digg and tried it for myself and it works great. After applying the hack, Firefox was sitting it 70MB maximized, after I minimized Firefox the memory dropped to 4MB. After maximizing again Firefox was using just 40MB. Very nice for those of us with limited RAM.
This hack works by moving Firefox to your hard drive when you minimize it. You would think that when maximizing Firefox there would be a delay as it is moved to RAM but I don’t see any delay. Very nice.
