Increasing RAM might solve the problem. Some Macs can have more RAM installed. Some cannot. How much RAM does your Mac have installed? You need to provide the year and model of your Mac for us to answer whether additional RAM can be installed. In the meantime you can do the following things which might be helpful.

  • Close any other windows and apps you are not using.
  • Clear your browser's history.
  • Do a restart in the Safe Mode. It clears Caches and repairs the operating system.
