I just tried the 64bit blazing fast FF posted in the OP.

Is it normal that it starts up fresh using 130 megs of RAM?

Yeah pretty much. It doesn't bother me in the least; I have 6GB in my desktop.

Firefox here, for the plugins. Chrome is overrated.
quoted for the truth


was on chromium for a while. gave up on it after a month. tab navigation gets completely unmanageable when you get past 30-ish tabs....





ram usage is not something that bothers me tho.

unused ram is wasted ram. Firefox doesn't wast ram on stupid things, everything it uses, it uses for a reason, it does however, use LOTS of caching, which is why it appears to waste ram. use firefox on a computer with limited  ram and you will see that it uses little ram, more than say, seamonkey, but not as much as say, opera.
