Flushes FireFox's accumulative into the virtual file, which slowly but
surely is then reclaimed and paged back into physical memory;-
automating the process at set intervals eventually reaches a lower
timed limit parameter that generates a system virtual memory error.
FireFox thingy, I guess w/ my non-updated version (being sorta hung on
extension compatibility issues is a drag);- various restart/"save
state and restore" extensions used to solve the problem, except for
some more sophisticated actively linked sites (scripts and cookies)
that won't restore but default from any existing complexity, such as
conditioned parameters on charts from market quotes.

Weird how memory conditions accumulate with FireFox, too, how long it
takes to push itself into a hairball memory condition negatively
affecting the overall OS state. ...Nor just for how long, I'd also
suspect what it's doing, how much activity and manipulates, and where
on the web they're being done.

Best thing going regardless w/ Cool Iris, even though kludgy as hell.
Next step would be scalable tab/windows for dynamically sizing a whole
webpage for a 32" monitor I've had for 3-4 years; noway I'd go down if
it needed replacing. Oh, well...hope's free, too, last I checked.
