Firefox 7 Beta : Implements Project Memshrink (Speed,Stability,Perception)


Firefox7 Beta has released by Mozilla just two days after Firefox6s official release. And this Beta release is first in the history of browsers to implement MemShrink. 

MemShrink : MemShrink is a project that aims to reduce Firefox's memory consumption nearly 50% of now. Find more about MenShrink

Firefox7 Official version is scheduled to be released on Sept. 27 (wiki.mozilla.com says). 

You will be able to download the new Firefox 7 Beta for Windows, Mac and Linux platforms, and as for those who have been running the Firefox beta, they need not worry since their version(s) will be updated automatically. On a slightly different note, Mozilla has also rolled out a beta version of Firefox for Android. It must be noted that Firefox 7′s memory usage will remain constant even if you decide to leave the computer and browser running overnight, where it will free up even more memory whenever you close more tabs.

Mozilla Firefox 6 Final via FTP servers:UnOfficial

[TechnoBolt] :However, the launch of Firefox 6 Final has yet to be announced officially, as the bits have not started being offered to the public.
It’s important to note that early adopters will not see any differences between Firefox 6 Final and Firefox 6 Beta Refresh 5.
Instead, the open source browser vendor is serving Firefox 6 Final through its FTP servers, at least at the time of this article. I don’t doubt that this will change soon enough, but for now, users can grab Firefox 6 via the link at the bottom of this article.

As I told you earlier this week, Mozilla was planning to launch Firefox 6 on August 16th, 2011. For all I know, that date continues to be the official release deadline for the latest major iteration of Firefox browser.

Unofficially though, the fully-fledged Firefox 6 Final is already available for download in all supported languages. Mozilla had started populating the Firefox 6.0 Release folder on its FTP servers even before I began writing this, and the bits are live as the article went public.
