From what I understand, one could cache 100 web pages (obviously, 2mb is average, but there are much smaller and much larger than that) in about 200mb. 1GB could cache literally 500 web pages.
How come web browsers use so much ram then?
In: 3000
I think the best way to explain it is to realize that websites are actually applications, you’re launching an application inside your browser where some of the code of the application is running client side (in your browser) and some of the code and processing is happening remotely (on the server). Once you realize that you’re actually running a program inside the browser memory and cou utilization of the application in respect to the browser makes a lot more sense.
