1- Open Firefox, type about:config in your Firefox browser.

2- Right click anywhere on the page, then from the menu select “New” then “Integer”.

3- When the dialog box appears, enter the following string:-

browser.cache.memory.capacity

4- It will open another dialog box, enter: 16384

p/s: 16384 is the exact number that represents 16MBs of RAM.

5- Lastly, close Firefox and restart.
