@ecmc Separate processes. And the numbers in there include all the memory each can access, _some of which_ is shared between all, so it's not quite that bad. But still, it's generally enough in practice that I can't quite understand how Chrome is touted as more lightweight than Firefox. (Faster, yes, largely because they have fewer things that are still allowed to lag the entire interface; the actual rendering times are close enough nowadays that it doesn't really make a difference to all but the most obsessive user.)
