I haven't experienced that. What is the use-case that makes this happen? I have one machine with only 8 gig and firefox is fine, and a 16 and 32 gig machine, firefox has never eaten 8 gigs

What they mean is "I use woefully malformed websites loaded up with all sorts of weird shit that eats ram on the regular, and somehow that's my browser's fault"

I have a VPS with 1 GB of RAM and Firefox with up to 3 tabs is fine. OK, it's running Linux maybe FF on Windows is worse.
