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
A web browser is to a web page what a cook is to a recipe.
Even if the recipe holds on a 4”×6” card and you could fill a hundred of them in a small box, the cook needs a whole kitchen, with food pantry, refrigerator, stove, oven, utensils, pots, pans…, and has to use a different kitchen for each recipe.
