Still, taking this into account, uBlock has a smaller memory footprint than ABP, even when using many more filter lists (something else to take into account).
But the biggest problem with this user's conclusion is that he doesn't take into account the [contributed memory footprint to web pages](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Firefox-version:-benchmarking-memory-footprint). This is where ABP [suffers the most](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=988266#c6). ABP will inject 14,000+ CSS rules into every page **and** into every `iframe` on a page. The count can easily reach 21,000+ CSS rules if using more than just EasyList (i.e. Fanboy's Social). On the other hand, uBlock will typically inject from none to a handful of CSS rules.
