Firefox 141 Release Brings Lower RAM Usage On Linux
The Mozilla Firefox 141.0 release binaries are out today for this monthly update to this cross-platform, open-source web browser.
Most significant with the Firefox 141 release is lower RAM usage on Linux. As shown in our benchmarks and aligning with what Mozilla was reporting, Firefox 141.0 on Linux enjoys much lower RAM usage than previous versions of Firefox on Linux.
Firefox 141.0 also no longer requires a forced restart after an update has been applied by a package manager.
The Firefox 141 browser update also now clears the back-forward-cache upon receiving the Clear-Site-Data: "cache" response header, enables the WebGPU API on Windows, and brings various web API additions. Details on all of the web developer additions in Firefox 141 via developer.mozilla.org.
