I tried Brave for a while, and I wanted to compare RAM usage with 27 tabs opened, Firefox is seriously doing great recently, thank you Mozilla! 🦊

They have the exact same settings, add-ons and tabs opened, Firefox has more bookmarks saved, that's it.
Oh really. Cool. Thanks for testing with same add-ons. That's the only way to make this a good scientific test.
Looking in top right (Firefox)... I do know some, what are your add-ons?
Maybe this explains why on my ancient PC (from 2007) Brave starts very slow. I replaced it with Firefox (Windows 7) and it is very smooth on it.
Does Chrome have an ad blocker plugin? If i'm not using less ram i have no reason to use brave
I support Firefox not only its an amazing (it is) I don't want Chromium engine to control the entire web there isn't any browser left other than Firefox and IE that don't use chromium.
Except Internet Explorer isn't developed anymore, it got replaced by Microsoft Edge which is based on chromium.
Probably not the best place to bring this up but I must admit, I never got the complaint about browsers using lots of RAM. I'm using a computer with 8GB of RAM to browse the internet. That's a huge part of what people use a computer for nowadays, often the main part. I'd rather have Firefox, for example, use every bit of RAM it can get its virtual fingers on and make that experience snappy with low loading times and whatnot than it to "preserve RAM" that I likely wouldn't use, otherwise.
Well, if you are using something in conjunction with Firefox(especially RAM hoes like some games or Photoshop/Animation/CAD/Any heavy software) then you'd rather have it take less RAM.
But yeah, ideally, you want it to use more RAM if it's available, and less RAM when it's not...but if every software does this thing, everyone will be fighting for RAM once more and everything will slow down.
FF brings my machine to a crawl pretty regularly. I have an every-other-day quit/restart "personal policy" on it. This happens on both a Linux box with 16GB RAM and a PC with 8. Could be a page that I visit, but if I let it sit overnight, the morning of the second or third day I just restart because all the RAM and a good bit of swap is used, and the rest of the machine suffers.
Brave is funded by venture capitalists, uses chromium and it's CEO (Eich) has become arrogant- just look at his twitter. If you want to use it- it's your loss, and I won't judge you on that. Just wanted to put my ideas here, as so many people seem to miss this.
Brave is essentially Chromium with a bunch of (great) add-ons built into it. I wonder how Firefox stacks up if you installed the same add-ons (like I do).
Right now I use Brave on my phone and Firefox with add-ons on PC. Definitely recommend it on phone... Recommend FF on PC.
Why do you recommend Brave on mobile? I have been using Firefox and enjoy it but I am all for using the best available lol
Just yesterday I was comparing them too on my 8gb MacBook Pro 2011.
Brave was a bit faster and lighter on RAM, but higher on the CPU. I keep Firefox because I prefer less CPU consume than RAM.
If you have over 16gb ram anyway it really doesn't matter.
E: it literally doesn't. Running lightroom, photoshop, 20 FF tabs doesn't even use half.
i never use more than 4 to 5 tabs most of the time. im using firefox just to not get sucked into everything google . Also the ad blocker is not working well in chrome.
What add-ons do I need to make Firefox as Brave? I've got uBlock already and HTTPS Everywhere.
But I think Firefox's ram usage is only gonna increase after Fission implementation. Which is fine because security is a priority now. Currently I'm using setting dom.ipc.processCount to -1. It uses more ram as it's create separate process for each tabs but I don't really do a lot of multitasking while browsing so 8GB ram is enough for this. The thing I like most about it is, after closing tabs memories are released properly so I like it this way. But I also understand for people who doesn't have enough ram or do a lot of heavy task while browsing, this could be an issue.
There was one guy who told me that his single Twitter tab is more 2GB of RAM lol. I know he's shitting. I have the same experience as you. Mozilla is great on RAM usage. I do have 16GB of RAM but I love too see Mozilla to continue improving RAM usage.
It gets even better with Auto Tab Discard. Started using it, since I'm a tab hoarder, saves a lot of memory for idle tabs.
Except for one thing that really sucks bawls. When your screensaver is engaged or monitor sleeping Firefox throttles network operations so any streaming audio keeps rebuffering. Affects Spotify, Tidal, Pandora ..all major streaming platforms. Until this is fixed Firefox remains a wannabe grown up browser.
Have you reported an issue? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi
Are you sure all of the tabs are loaded? I've recently tried to disable pagefile and found out that i could only have like 6 tabs open in firefox. The rest were being unloaded as soon as i open a new one, except for pinned tabs which stayed no matter what.
Ew, ads --- and in Firefox, of all places. How can you stand that?
They're not ads, don't worry! It's a Tecnology site (a bad one) these are just the site banners of their products
I hate ads exactly like everyone here, don't worry, I have ublock origin!
Braves built-in shields use a ton of RAM. Disable the shields outright and try again.
I tried and I didn't notice any difference before taking the screenshot, I'm not using any brave ads blocking or scripting block or stuff related to brave
So the usage is the exact with or without it enabled
