Memory leak from fresh install in formated PC
Just formated my pc win7 64 installed drivers, FIREFOX 20.0.1, flash and java, just that.
10 minutes browsing facebook, gmail and guess what?
2,3gb of memory used of 16gb
Ridiculous...how can i use FF without flash and java?

A memory leak implies that memory is not returned to the system after shutting down Firefox. This might be memory gluttony and not a leak. (In my opinion, memory is there to be used, and it's only a problem if other applications have to swap to disk. But I digress...)
You can easily disable plugins on the following tab. However, using the web without Flash is more and more difficult:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Plugins category
