Comment on Chrome 14 consumes more memory than Firefox 7

Comments

"Then I opened Windows Task Manager and noted down the Memory consumption of all chrome.exe processes"

This approach won't yield an accurate result because of memory being shared between processes. As an example, 12 chrome processes might appear to be using 50mb each, but if half of that is from shared libraries, then the actual total is 325mb, not 600.
