Problem Description
There is a memory problem in Firefox 36 that causes the applications to crash/freeze. I understand that this may not be a Construct 2 bug per se, but Construct 2 is unusable on the current Firefox version. Report is from a non-programmer.
Demo Apps that CrashSteps to Reproduce Bug
- Update Firefox to 36.0
- Load a game in firefox (see above)
- Interact with the game, the quick you interact the quicker you will run into memory problems
Observed Result
Memory spikes up and down and ultimately reaches a point where the application is unusable. For me that is around 3,000,000 K.
Expected Result
Not the above.
Affected Browsers
- Chrome: (NO)
- FireFox: (YES)
- Internet Explorer: (NO)
Operating System and Service Pack
Windows 7 64 bit
Service Pack 1

I have integrated graphics, but I have been able to recreate on a desktop computer. Keep task manager open on the processes tab while you interact with the games above. Watch the Firefox process.
