Google Chrome vs Safari vs FireFox, who are the RAM killer?

You know, something look smart and fast doesn’t mean it is good. This statement apply to our Google Chrome (Who claim itself as a fastest web browser compare with others). Yes, i agreed Google Chrome is faster than others, but after comparing the memory usage, seems like using Google Chrome with extensions are killing your RAM (Memory) usage. Why? Check this out:

Beside “Google Chrome” is using 61.8MB real memory, did you notice that there are numbers of “Google Chrome Worker” are running? Those are Google Chrome web browser add-on/Extension. If you installed more extension and enabled them, it is taking more on your RAM usage.

Let’s compare the memory usage of “Safari” and “FireFox” web browser:

The result showing FireFox took more memory usage, but the add-on extension doesn’t take any additional memory usage, not like Chrome.

And memory usage from Safari web browser is the lowest, Apple recently claimed their Safari 5 are the fastest web browser on the planet. I’m not so sure yet, will find out after this.

So, conclusion is, Chrome is the RAM killer~~!!!!! If you installed extensions on it.

    The RAM killer should be Chrome’s extension, not Chrome itself. FF should be the Biggest RAM killer.

    Most probably your Chrome’s extension contain memory leaks.

      Those extension are some well known extension, no matter which extension i tried, it just take additional memory usage, even im not using them. So it is better don’t use any extension with Chrome or Chrome should change / fix this.

      I guess Google need more time to work on their Web Browser, since they are new in this.
