Is Safari the best browser for the Mac?
I've been using Safari for a very long time and I found no fault with it whatsoever; other than the odd tome it needed to be restarted.
Recently I saw a link for the new Firefox and decided to give that a go. I used Firefox extensively when I was using a PC.
When I installed it and ran it, I looked at the Activity Monitor to see which is using more resources.
Over here both browsers are running with 2 tabs and are playing a long youtube video. It seems to me that Safari is using more memory with PIDs 4101, 6135, 6138 using a total of 861.9MB of real memory.
Whereas Firefox is using PIDs 6814,6816 using a total of 384MB of real memory…

This made me ask... what does this mean? Is Safari really the best browser for my mac?
I've had no real issues with it, but will Firefox be a better choice for something that uses less system resources?
