What is the size of the firefox update? I can't find it but need to know.
I have a limited amount of download capacity each month. I need to know the file size of firefox updates. How do I find out this information so I can decide when to do an update?

If you can use small incremental update then the file size should be small. If you need to download and install the full update then the amount of data is considerably larger.
Best in such a case is usually not to skip updates: firefox-32.0.1-32.0.3.partial.mar and firefox-32.0.2-32.0.3.partial.mar are only about 158 KB each.
Full version for Mac: 63 MB
If you can update via Firefox > About Firefox 22 MB (firefox-31.0-32.0.3.partial.mar)

When ever someone updates a program, changes are made. How many changes determines the size of the update file. Sometimes the programer will make small changes. Other times an entire section could be re-written.
Is there a time when you are not charged for internet use?
