And in watching my Rainmeter memory process meter, I can see Firefox is using much less memory, almost half as much with as many tabs open. Mind you, Pale Moon is built on the Mozilla Firefox code base, and its promise is to be faster. My main machine is a homebuilt creation with a Core i7-4770 processor, 16GB of 2133Mhz DDR3 memory, a Nvidia GTX 670 video card and OCZ Vertex 4 SSD C: drive running Windows 7, 64-bit. All apps were closed and background processes cancelled. Not only that, but it slowed down the whole system.įinally one evening, with nothing better to do, I installed the latest version of Firefox, and set about testing. Pages were painfully slow to load, especially with a lot of animated GIFs. My Rainmeter top processes by memory meter showed Pale Moon was gobbling up more than 2GB of memory with as few as a dozen tabs open. When I finally gave up on Chrome due to its annoying incompatibilities, Pale Moon was my browser of choice.īut as the months dragged on it became really obvious that Pale Moon was a pig. It promised to take the Mozilla source code and optimize it for faster performance by removing extraneous things like crash reporting.
