Re: "Hi, I'm trying out Lagrange and geminispace in general. Iโฆ"
On my Linux box Firefox uses gigabytes. I think latest thinking is that unused memory is wasted memory and it's the coder's privilege and responsibility to come up with some way to use it all up.

Hi, I'm trying out Lagrange and geminispace in general. I love the sleek minimalism and snappiness of Lagrange, but then I had a look at the Activity Monitor (on MacOS 10.15)... and Lagrange is using more memory (700mb) than Firefox (500mb), which is crazy. Is this normal? I would expect the 'smolweb' be, well, smol in memory consumption as well.
