Browsers taking a swig of RAM

[cobito]

In Reddit I have seen this animation published where you can see REAL images of how different web browsers consume RAM:

Disturbing...

It was about time that a thorough, rigorous, and independent analysis was published.
Yes sir, thank you for posting it here.

I'm not a regular user of Chrome, since Windows 7 came out, but I see that the jokes about this browser's memory gluttony are recurring, so there must be something to it I like Firefox better, although some of its add-ons can also leave you out of memory, like the one for downloads from MEGA, which the other day had my browser consuming almost 7GB But nothing that can't be fixed by closing the application for a moment, or using the Memory Restart (another add-on).
