Please point me to the FF docs that recommend staying under a certain number of tabs, point me to anywhere in the docs that FF is only intended for less than a certain number of tabs.
At this point I don’t even get to that 300 mark, it’s getting unstable and crashing around 100.
I see it constantly “FF is rock solid!!” “FF can handle what you throw at it!” “FF can beat chrome hands down!!” But it didn’t hold true in my testing.
What you’re saying now is “FF is rock solid (Most of the time)” “FF can handle what you throw at it! (Unless you throw 200 tabs at it then you’re using it wrong)” “FF can beat chrome hands down!! (Except in raw tab count)”.
I tried it for months dealing with it’s crashes, it wasn’t even just a day thing and I gave up after its first crash or something.
This is an optimization problem, I can and have replicated it multiple times on all manner of hardware and OS configurations.
“Close tabs that use too many system resources
Some websites use scripts that use a lot of memory and/or CPU to keep them up to date, such as online mail client pages. If these scripts are not optimized, they can lead to the use of too many system resources. You can see which tabs are using the most system resources by opening the Firefox Task Manager (about:processes page). If you do not need these tabs open all the time, you can close them to reduce system resources usage.”
FF is rock solid and they do tell you to limit your tabs.
You are complaining about what is at best an edge case scenario causing an issue while being fine with sucking up the multitude of problems that chrome has because you are too stubborn to organize your browser.
That’s a “if you’re having problems” not a “This is the intended limit”
Hell it doesn’t even say how many tabs they intended to support. This could very well fall into an optimization issue. Which you know, could improve things for everyone including potential users who may want to jump to firefox.
Yes because computers and their capabilities vary immensely. How could they know what your pc is capable of versus someone else’s?
This exactly explains that there are limits to the amount of tabs a system can handle. 300+ is not a normal amount for any system and definitely falls outside of normal use case testing.
The optimization issue is you and op not using your brains.
limits that they’re not exhibiting in other browser software.
I’m kindof shocked you still can’t see the issue there. That they’re not pulling this case out of thin air but rather it’s how they used their browser previously.
I mean maybe we just want to say Chromium has better tab management under the hood. Or we can see if something can be improved. Especially because as hardware improves and more users are enabled to being able to open more tabs this should become more glaring, not less.
