[QUOTE="Altimatum, post: 884990, member: 109414"] It is a brand new 13" MBP with the 2.26GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB ram, 160gb HD. Firefox 3.5.2, pretty sure it is the latest one Safari is 4.0.2, also the latest one. Does the mac have some sort of program like the task manager in Windows to monitor CPU usage and what is using up most of the memory? I restarted the laptop and it has been running decently now for a few hours. I would expect to be able to constantly run the laptop though with just basic web browsing and not have the memory fill up and start giving me problems. I can leave my PC on for days and weeks at a time and not have issues with only 2gb of ram. Does a mac have a pagefile or virtual memory like the PC? Would it help to increase that if this is the problem? [/QUOTE]
