Opening three blank pages with IE gave me about 20MB of memory usage.

Didn't bother testing other stuff. Imo it's all pretty pointless. Having 10 toolbars installed will probably increase memory usage. The same I guess for other types of browser plugins, so it's going to be different for every person. Also, opening something for the second time (after closing it the first time) will use less memory as windows keeps certain stuff loaded in case you use it again shortly thereafter. Lot's of reasons imaginable why results will be different for different persons. Testing conditions are always different.
