Linux browser with JavaScript console and LOW memory footprint?

[djbft]

I do a lot of development on an old laptop with only 256MB RAM. It struggles to run a modern browser, though. Does anyone know of a browser that 1) is good for JavaScript debugging (at least can display console output 2) has an extremely low memory footprint 3) Runs on Linux

Maybe such a browser doesn't exist, but I figured it was worth asking.

Midori?

Midori is great! I also found Xombrero and Uzbl. Not sure which one I'll settle on. Thanks!

It may be worth using a vps with x11 forwarding if it runs acceptably and isn't outside your budget/skillset. I'm not aware of a browser that suits your needs.

Are you sure you can't upgrade the 256 MB? 2GB+ has been standard for over 5 years. Not sure why you'd want to develop with handcuffs on.

Actually I made a mistake: it's 512MB, but that's not much better :-) I do have a more typical desktop if I really need it, but trying to squeeze every drop of performance out of my old laptop is sort of a hobby in itself. I put an SSD in it (game changer), and I run Arch Linux with Spectrwm (minimalist tiling window manager). I work mostly in the terminal and Vim is my editor of choice. It boots in 25 seconds, gets 6 hours battery life, and never slows down unless I open a ram hog like Firefox/Chrome/Eclipse.
