how is it look like. post some screen.

 

I'm running the program now, and visually at least so far, there is no difference.

Just like the release notes explain there is memory leakage with the software.

It's eating up my RAM.

YUM-YUM-CRUNCH-CRUNCH!

lol not that awful.

 

hahhahaha. lol. owned

 

ill pass on this one. but good looking tho

 

i have been running this "minefield" for weeks now and experienced no leak, occasionally a nightly built would bomb out web pages, but then the dev team introduced a fix quite fast

apart from extension/theme compatibility, i almost forget that ff2 is being running in parallel.

it feels faster & bit more solid than ff2

cheers ...

 

Well I'm not sure for myself.

Ran some download & upload tests and now I'm 9% slower than right before the install. I'm faster with IE7/FF2.

Been running this version almost 48 hours and:

day 1 : 37mb memory usage.
day 1.5 : 53mb
day 2 : 78mb @ 3-5% CPU usage. (Is this normal? I've never had this with FF2).

 

well, try running it with other apps and see the ram being released back. memory leak is to me an oxymoron, why not use the ram when it is available?, but there u have it in ur specs - cpu usage, that is what it counts, not hogging the whole system processes

cheers ...

 

ohhh I see how it dips and comes back.

Where did you get the GPA2 fix for this? Or am I missing the point and I'm not being affected at all?

 

my minefield is set up to check and pull any available latest built from wherever automatically. only got a pop up (everyday, sometimes twice a day depending on the mine at the time ) to ask "restart minefield" yes/no, then just click "yes" - the browser will then restart with all the current open pages w/o losing a beat - nifty, i would say

cheers ...

 

It says people should not be downloading this unless they are developers.

I want to know the security risks of running GPA2 over FF2.

Anyone know?

Or should I just go back to FF2 until around May?

 

is this the beta version?

 

FF 1.5 used to be as stable as a rock... now quicktime and streaming plugins sometimes crash FF2.

 

it's called "gran paradiso alpha 2".

with a name like that I expected some updated graphics.

 

or "brave&crazy" souls

as i understand, gp2 would be more into performance in this stage, th security risk should not be much more than the current ff2

i m running ff2 and gp2/minefield in parallel

cheers ...

 

might check ur plugins version then - i haven't experienced any ff2 crash watching streaming video, quicktime or otherwise

cheers ...

 

Some snippets in a mainstream source

Not all that much and probably nothing new to those of you in the know, but interesting for the likes of me

 

Awesome article, Steven. Once again, thanks for the link. Wow, you sure are resourceful.

Matt

 

hmmmm, I've still got plain old FF since there was such a big scare with FF2, so by the time FF3 becomes mainstream I might get around to downloading FF2.

 

Loki 2.0.0.0 ist yet COMPATIBLE with ff3 3.0a4pre (yesterday's build)!

i still miss my themes

cheers ...
