8.Limit Your browsers RAM
Usage : Firefox takes up too
much memory on you
computer, you can limit the
amount of RAM usage. Here is
how you can do this.
Go to About:Config,
filter"browser.cache" and then
select
"Browser.cache.disk.capacity".
its set to 50000, but you can
lower it down depending on
how much memory you Have. i
recommend to try 15000 If you
have between 512 mb and 1gb
ram. you can change it
accordingly.
9.Reduce RAM usage further
when Firefox is minimized: This
setting will move Firefox to
your hard drive when you
minimize it, taking up much
less memory. And there is no
noticeable difference in speed
when you restore Firefox so
it’s definitely worth it. Again,
go to about:config, right-click
anywhere and select New->
Boolean. Name it
“config.trim_on_minimize” and
set it to TRUE. You have to
restart Firefox for these
settings to take effect.
10.Tab Navigation: Instead of
using mouse to select Different
tabs that you have opened in
you browser. use the keyboard.
Shortcuts are:
Ctrl+Tab (rotate Forward
Among tabs)
Ctrl+shift+tab(Rotate to the
previous tab)
Ctrl+1+9 (Choose a number to
