    Memory Usage Across Browers

    Damon Edwards Community Member
      I've never noticed this before, although, I've never tested this. The same SWF has different memory usage in each browser, and not just a small difference, a pretty significant one. I'm running the swf in 3 browsers on a PC, Firefox/IE/Safari. Here is the memory breakdown:
      Firefox: 25-30MB
      IE: 7-9MB
      Safari: 7-9MB
      My question is probably obvious by now.. Why such the huge difference?? I disabled all add-ons on firefox, making it a fresh install. Firefox 3.0, IE 7, Safari 3.1.2, all have Flash Player 9
