Our server implements full cache control, and the browser will enquire if a file is changed. Therefore if I'm using the source version (which is most of the time when developing) effectively the browser is caching all the files as the server returns a "304 - Not Modified" for every file. I find that IE (v7) is a lot faster than FF (v2) for carrying out these checks. If I'm running the server locally, it only takes a second or two to verify all the files and download any new files. FF starts off fast, but soon slows down as memory bloats. However, FFs reporting of source errors is a lot better (with Firebug) so I take a chance on which one to use. > Another javascript newbie question: does javascript have a garbage > collector? Yes.
