And also the browser will stop rendering for about 2-5 seconds and then return to rendering. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Find site with many pictures 2.open up each picture with a diffrent tab 3.Stop when you have opened about 10-20 windows. Expected Results: Used less system memory. Also it should not become unresponsive for 2-5 seconds

Bugs with summaries of "use less memory" aren't useful. Developers need specific testcases or proposals to fix something.
