I just don't want to upgrade and then not have the plug in work. <BR/><BR/>THANKS SO MUCH.<BR/><BR/>ArielMidnight Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096529742655121241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5026869257529481970.post-73520742694941474742008-06-18T15:18:00.000-04:002008-06-18T15:18:00.000-04:00Hi, Michael.

I'm in pretty good shape memory-wise w/ my computers, so I haven't worried about it too much, but I suspect that you are correct that add-ons might slow down performance. That's why I don't use themes which seem to take up more memory too. (The new Firefox 3 default is more attractive in my opinion and quite functional.) I also do watch the size of the add-ons. The biggest one by far is Zotero, but that's one I won't omit.<BR/>Maybe someone else knows more about add-on/performance issues, but in the meantime, you can always save a little by using semi-colons instead of colons!(From an old Dilbert cartoon...)MGVHoffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984044532444865131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5026869257529481970.post-82501719355650552002008-06-18T13:04:00.000-04:002008-06-18T13:04:00.000-04:00How does one know how add-ons affect the performan...How does one know how add-ons affect the performance of Firefox? It would only seem natural that more add-ons correspond to more RAM consumption (a fact which sadly still must be taken into consideration even on my desktop) or bandwidth consumption? For instance I know that Forecast Fox slows down internet traffic. I read on Iyov's blog that the Google Toolbar is also known for this. Is there a point where the law of diminishing returns comes into play and more is not better?Michael Hanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659181414078106398noreply@blogger.com
