Firefox 15 available

The new major version of Mozilla's browser is available for download, offering notable improvements performance and solving problems such as excess consumption of the memory of the accessories.


Firefox 15 downloads the updates while you are using it, and then applies the changes. The next time you start Firefox, you will have the updated version. Without complications. In addition, the new system should help eliminate the feeling that the browser is updating every two days, an issue that bothered many users when Mozilla adopted the rapid update system. Now it will update at the same rate but we will not notice.

Another important change in Firefox 15 is that - for the first time - memory "leaks" caused by browser extensions are permanently stopped. Mozilla has been working on this issue for quite some time as part of the MemShrink project. Extensions often caused sudden memory leaks, even if they were popular and useful add-ons. With the solution implemented by Mozilla, those who are using multiple extensions should see significant reductions in Firefox memory consumption.

The new version also includes some developer tools, including a design tool, and experimental support for the SPDY v3 networking protocol.

Firefox 15 should be available in the repositories of your favorite distro in the next few days. It will only be enough to update the system.

Those who wish to download the files from the official page, it is also possible.

    That is why I like firefox as a web browser, since it is always improving, although at one time it was its problem that it felt very heavy and consumed a lot of memory, but it is good that it continues to improve, as long as there is an update immediately updated.

    I hope it continues like this and does not lose more users, to go with google chrome or opera.

    Greetings.

    With the browser I am satisfied but with the search engine (google, bing…) you cannot find what you are looking for, you only find what they want you to find and if you find it they redirect you…. although we use a free software .. we just started

    One question, does the option of automatic updates affect us Linux users, if we know that it will update as long as it is in the repositories?
