On Palemoon 26.2.1 and Firefox 43.0.1 with all plugins and addons disable on both browsers and with a clean profile the Palemoon's GDI Objects usage is far greater than Firefox or Chrome 49.0.2623.112 m. The machine run Windows XP SP3 and is mostly updated.
Firefox uses 93 GDI Objects to display that huge page at torstatus.blutmagie.de
Chrome use 99 GDI Objects
Palemoon use 327 GDI Objects

Besides when the browsers who hit the 1.5 GB - 1.8 GB RAM barrier tend to stale/crumble/freeze, I think this GDI consumption is an issue. Wikipedia tell that GDI is hardware accelerated on Windows XP, while on Windows 7 "most primitive GDI operations" and GDI+ are not hardware accelerated.

Re: GDI Objects consumption vs. Firefox
I think that consumption of 99 GDI objects are more efficient than the consumption 327 GDI objects. What you think? Is that "feature" worth supported?Moonchild wrote:What do you need support with?
Re: GDI Objects consumption vs. Firefox
GDI objects are all picture things on the windows program, and you should never worried about this. Palemoon has slightly more windows graphics then firefox and it consups more GDI of course. But if you really have trouble with it, you are to disable all toolbar icons and images, and disable all animations and graphics in the about:config
