[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1073233, member: 78686"] Yesterday for the first time I had a situation where Edge's lack of RAM usage was helpful for me in a real-world scenario. I was using Firefox and had 18 tabs open including 3-4 heavy ones. Then I tried to run my VM and VMWare notified me something like, not enough physical memory is available. Turned out Firefox was using 6 GB of memory. Opened Edge, loaded all the same tabs, and browsed around all of them and its memory usage was only 2.9 GB. Due to sleeping tabs set to 15 seconds, it quickly became 2.3 GB, and I was able to run my VM without closing any tab (y) [/QUOTE]
