Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

Firefox reduces memory hunger

Firefox reduces memory hunger

Mozilla Firefox 7, which will hit the market in September, will be significantly faster because it solved the problem that led to memory leaks, according to an official statement from the company.

Nicholas Nethercote states that the "MemShrink" project is most responsible for closing vulnerabilities in search engines and providing faster Firefox. Firefox 7 uses less memory than Firefox 6, but also versions 5 and 4, it is often 20% to 30% less, and sometimes even 50%, claims Nethercote. This means that Firefox is significantly faster, so it is less likely to crash, especially if a large number of Web sites are open at the same time.

Firefox has long faced criticism for using large amounts of RAM and for not freeing up memory when tabs are closed, which degrades browser performance, stops the browser from responding, or crashes.

Reduced memory usage should result in fewer crashes and shutdowns of Windows, where Firefox is designed as a 32-bit application and is thus limited to only 2GB of virtual memory. Firefox 7 is currently in the "Aurora" channel and will move to a more reliable beta build in mid-August. If Mozilla keeps its schedule for the rapid release of new releases, then the final version of Firefox 7 can be expected in late September.
