Speed at the expense of memory

My browser experience suffers from me only having a 2gig laptop. Almost every day I reach a point where I have to restart the browser because it slows down. Chrome, Firefox, whatever. Already I'm a few hours into my daily routine and Firefox is at 600mb. I try to make use of tab groups in Firefox to limit this, and it helps a bit. I also suspect Gmail, Youtube of scripts that slow the browser down. All I can say is the browser is now the heaviest application on my desktop and has been for some time. It's the price we have to pay for access to "the cloud" and fast/responsive interaction with the web; but it sucks that my browser experience is now outgrowing my 2gig laptop.
