I can confirm this, the first time I tried it out I accidentally set it to 1 GB, Firefox could only see that amount of memory. Though limiting Firefox to only 1GB its a very bad idea and it can cause it to crash it's not because it's trying to go over though it's just because it ran out of memory.

8GB is what I would consider the safe minimum for web browsing. If you said it lower you'll have performance losses. Setting it higher though will only chew up valuable System RAM by inactive tabs.

  • Including Unix and BSD.

  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
