Browser.cache.memory.capacity [UPDATED]
Here's some information on the browser.cache.memory.capacity parameter:
A Firefox configuration parameter!
The value of browser.cache.memory.capacity is measured in kilobytes (KB). When Firefox starts, it allocates a portion of memory based on this value. As you browse the web, Firefox stores cache entries in this allocated memory. When the cache grows, Firefox uses a least-recently-used (LRU) algorithm to evict older cache entries to make room for new ones.
The default value of browser.cache.memory.capacity varies depending on the system and Firefox version. On a typical system, the default value might be around 50-100 MB (50,000-100,000 KB).
browser.cache.memory.capacity is a configuration parameter in Firefox that controls the amount of memory allocated for caching web pages, images, and other web content.
When you visit a website, Firefox stores some of the content in memory (RAM) so that if you revisit the same page or navigate to a similar page, it can load faster. This is known as caching. The browser.cache.memory.capacity parameter determines how much memory is allocated for this caching.
