> Browsers have sub second back buttons, how much pre-rendered ram space do you think that takes up?

I'm sure the os & browser devs are all good and great. I'm sure the web devs are all fine and accurate; that the subject is a complex one and we're already all doing the best we can.

But that's not my point: I'm worried that one day we'll run out of RAM because we're designing our webapps as if client RAM was no longer a finite resource, we simply forgot it even existed in the first place.
