Chrome and Firefox 3.5 Memory Usage

,----[ Quote ]
| Here we note the browser that has the best results in the experiment at every 
| level. Firefox 3.5 used the smallest amount of memory during its peak, it 
| used the smallest amount of memory when all points were averaged, and it used 
| the smallest amount of memory at the end of the experiment after all tabs 
| were closed. Firefox 3.5 continues Firefox 3.0's legacy of being the most 
| memory efficient browser in this style of experiment.

Things You’ll Love About Firefox 3.5

,----[ Quote ]
| Undo Closed Window – We’ve all done it before. Now you can undo a closed 
| window just like a closed tab. 
| 
| Drag Tab To New Window – Previously you could drag/drop to reorder tabs. Now 
| you can drag a tab off the tab bar to move it into it’s own window. This may 
| sound trivial but it actually makes organizing tabs much easier.

Firefox 3.5: What's in a Number?

,----[ Quote ]
| I had an interesting chat this morning with Mike Shaver, VP, Engineering at
| Mozilla, about the imminent Firefox 3.5. Its launch takes place against a
| background where Firefox continues to make gains in the browser market,
| passing the 50% share in some European countries, and where it has created an
| unparalleled ecosystem of addons that places it at the forefront of the
| browser world in terms of capability and customisability.
