There are still memory issues that plague Orion, namely I often have bombs when closing out of certain memory intensive sites (instagram, NYTimes, Reddit, etc).
Here are some examples. First a new profile and a visit to the NYTimes site:
Note: I'm using memory cleaner so as to demonstrate RAM usage. I have no extensions in this new profile as well.
Next is Safari:
We can see that Safari uses half the amount of RAM that Orion uses. When I have multiple windows open, it becomes even worse. I have sent in so many crash reports that I've lost track. I have found that when I use memory cleaner to periodically free up RAM, I can avoid Orion crashing as often.
I hope this demonstration helps.
