Hello,

My FireFox is crashing at least 2 to 4 times a day on varios bases i can't explain before. In a black crash report pops up or the whole system goes down and windows 7 is kicking in.

After full inspection on Mallware we could rull this out. And system seems ful up to date. Yesterday i found out how to open About: Memory to see wath it is using in a way.

So the question about Google. Today I have moved the open tab of Google Analytics Real-Time report to IE and FireFox didn't crash any more. Moving it back i see that memory say that it is going up to 1,8 G and rising and after some time FireFox crashes again.

I have found this topic https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=140028 and are now curios if this problem is indeed my problum but that within FireFox.

Quote: What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open Google Analytics Real Time View 2. Slow memory leak will eventually build 3. Confirmed multiple times by multiple users, on multiple Operating Systems. End quote.

Hope this is the reason and can be fixed in some way.

Hi Robert, There can be a number of memory leaks from pages that are left open for a long period of time.

To find out more details of what is causing the leak there is [Tools] LeakTools to help diagnose what may be causing the link.

Hi, but to be honest thats way above my head information. :-).

I did figure out what might cause the problem by turning off and moving over pages and also hit on posts by Google search that sounds as the same problem.

Fackt is I have no idee what that leakTool is and guess seeing the codes they talk about will not understand it anyway. :-)

But then i asume you mean that if it is the Google page it's a Google probem not one in FireFox and you can't do anything about it?

Thanks anyway for your info.
