RAMBack is a Firefox extension that can clear the internal cache memory for Firefox 3, release the unuse memory space for other applications.

A lot of Firefox 2 users complain the memory usage for Firefox 2 is too high, which cause other applications to run slowly. Although Firefox 3 seems to be load faster and consume less memory, but it still can’t fully release the unuse memory. For example, closing unwanted tabs doesn’t fully recover the memory.

So, we need extension which can clear those cache memory. After install the extension, you can press the “Clear Cacher” options from the “Tools” menu.

I wonder why Firefox developer don’t include this feature in Firefox 3? Although RAMBack extension does help us to free up the unuse menory, but we still need to manually press the “Clear Cache” button. I hope that the extension author can try to make this automatic clear the cache whenver any tab being closed.
