Memory use keeps increasing with Firefox, causing crash
« on: February 05, 2009, 09:32:28 PM »
I have a problem with memory use keeps increasing with Firefox, causing it to crash, when ever I have Kakao Stats site tab open.

I have been trying to resolve why Firefox kept crashing one me, with Task Manager open. I found out that Kakao Stats site was the one causing the memory increasing until Firefox crashes.

It stops increasing when I click on the Fourm page in the same tab, to write this bug.

I use Kokao Stats all the time, as my number one stats site.

I hope you can correct this issue.

I will investigate.
Every criticism or suggestion from the user is a gift. Even if i disagree or don't answer. Obviously if there is real intellectual work on producing it the better.

Thanks Kakao,

I had done a clean installation of Win XP Home 32 Bit, and Firefox was increasing memory useage. I was having other issues with that installation, with some of my applications.

I did another clean installation again, and now Firefox is not increasing memory usage when I'm on the  Kakao Stats website.

I'm sorry to have bothered you, as it was my OS causing the issue.

No problem. Thinking about it the only thing that could leak memory is the javascript script which shows time remaining to next update. I would start analyzing there. If you see that again post it.
