Has the internet gone insane?

Has the internet gone insane?
Why the hell is this allowed?
Only 3 tabs are open,the whole video downloaded for local viewing is 500Mb in 720p.

>cancerfox

I have never had this happen. What are your addons?

Its not like the newest iteration of sjwFF is any better.
This was recommended by everyone a a decent alternative god dammit

...

>waterfox
>windows

>go from commercial straight to systemd cancer
makes you think

You're using firefox, goyim
That browser is notorious for memory leaks

>software uses available ram
>this is somehow a problem

This, you're not even telling us how much RAM you have. Unused RAM is wasted RAM.

Is RAMposting the worst thing to have happened to Sup Forums or the best?

about:memory

It is pretty good, though. Not a lot of browsers are good with RAM these days.

It's time

>people think it's the webrowsers fault
>when its actually web developers fault

If high ram usage was a browser problem, it would already have been fixed by now. Google hasn't even been able to get around it with Chrome


I'm getting tired of seeing this shit and blaming it on the browser

>load html file into ram
>don't render until user looks at that part

How fucking difficult can it be

>HE FELL FOR THE WATERFOX MEME

If its so simple, why don't you do it?

>load a google webpage on a google browser
>all my ram is gone
what did they mean by this?
thankfully the ram handoff is fast as fuck bitch otherwise you'd be dead

Uma fucking delicia

The absolute state of Waterfox

Edge is only using 230MB of RAM for me with 4 tabs open
>he fell for the free software meme

>tries to avoid spyware by using waterfox
>uses windows
>gets cucked spacewise

it's like karma is real

I don't get this meme. I have 6GB of RAM and even with nothing else open, Firefox becomes unusable once it hits around 1.2GB. Total system memory usage is around like 40% and shouldn't lag so badly and constantly lock up

how about you use ESR on linux

...

>Why the hell is this allowed?
>allowed
the fuck does that even mean, are you going to call the RAM police? Fucking stupid prick with your fucking stupid questions

because then there will ne no reason to buy ram/new computers

>start 6GB game
>8GB system goes unresponsive
>we still to this day have no system for relinquishing RAM in cooperation with the system to keep everything responsive, other than paging which isn't perfect and doesnt cover every situation
nice use of resources there

What does about:memory tell you about what is actually using the memory?

YOU TRIED SO HARD AND GOT SO FAR BUT IN THE END IT DIDN'T EVEN MATTER

>forgotten weapons
my nigga

>complaining about 2gb ram usage

HA

HAHAHAHAH

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>complaining about people complaining about ram usage while also complaining about ram usage

OH my, that's terrible, Almost 3GB?

Having lots of ram doesn't make waste acceptable.

unused ram with slow handoff rate is actually the wasteful part
but poorfags will never comprehend anything beyond their dick

How? I have the ram, might as well use it.

Leaks ram is not used ram. If browsers were actually allocating this much memory for a useful purpose the situation would be very different.

>Useful purpose

It might be your 'download videos as mp4' app. The mp4 is probably sitting there in the browser ready for you to download.

You think high ram usage itself is bad?

How about actual content on websites being constrained to smaller and smaller margins because of muh ad revenue.

I've been reading the register since the early 2000's and its been getting steadily narrower every couple years. Look at this shit, its like a mobile formatted website.

>15 different shitty video downloading extensions
>hurr why is my browser using gorillion of RAM

if you want to download videos, youtube-dl is far superior to any "extension". You're on Sup Forums for fucks sake.

>its ok if the browser leaks
>unused ram is wasted ram :^)
hahaahha epic ramlets fug off :D

>one for downloading flash files
>one for getting html5 videos straight from the tube
>literally 6 gorrilion extensions
woah so this is the power of comprehension

I forgot to add. It probably makes your browser behave like mega.co.nz where it installs in the browser then you choose to download or not. Why am I helping windows users on my time off? I don't know.

Enable multiprocess you dumb fucker
