Hello:

I'm on an old system, so this may not apply to others.

I use FF 1.0 along with Thunderclunk for email.
I like FF a lot, but don't use Tabbed Browsing.

Problem here seems to be resources (cache memory etc.)

They both start off fine, but get slower and slower..
in fact dismally slow the longer the session. This
is especially so if I'm opening and closing either or
both.

At times, the system will just come to a halt while the hard drive grinds and moans,
moving stuff around apparently. I can sit for up to a minute or more waiting to do the next thing.

Does anyone know how to see resources (memory) utilization on the fly, in Windows-95?
That might help explain things.

If I reboot from scratch, things speed back up again if only for a little while. - Larry
