Keep getting repeat warning from AVG that firefox memory usage is too high.

right now
Firefox.exe = 405,228k
Plugin-container.exe = 56,260k

too high?
solutions?
 
7.0.1
and i don't think i have any scripts or add-ons or anything running
usually 4 tabs, or more.
 
I've seen FF climb to 1.2gb used. it's really all about how long you've kept the session open for and how many tabs you've had open. Killing the tab does remove some memory, but not all of it. I basically never close out my browser until it starts lagging.
 
i usually leave it on all day, and go through different tabs like fucking hot cakes
ctrl+T FTMFW!

agreed.. just got home and opened my browser, have 7 tabs and usage is 150K

but i'll leave FF open for days... 8gb RAM and 64 bit ftmfw
 
I was having the same issue. Upgraded and I haven't had any problems. But I generally run with 5+ tabs open and I never close out the browser.
 
FF is at around 550 right now....sometimes it goes to 900 or over and stays up there even with the tabs closed.

iTunes has been doing the same thing lately; right now it's at 1gb
