99521 - Memory size is to large on the WinNT system.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Daniel]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010801
BuildID:    2001080110

The memory size shouldn't be so big. Netscape 6.1 doesn't use nearly as much
memory to display the same page as Mozilla does while running on a WinNT system

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start up Mozilla on WinNT


Actual Results:  The memory size that the program uses is around 20 to 30k in
size while Netscape 6.1 and IE5.5 are around 5 to 10k in size.

Expected Results:  Should find a way to reduce the memory size. Netscape 6.1
uses the same engine but use less memory while running.

Marking invalid.  We have lots of "using too much memory" bugs.  Unless you can
point to a particular page on which memory usage jumps unreasonably or point to
a particular part of the code that uses too much memory, there is nothing useful
that can be done with this bug.
