Agreed - I opened this instance of Firefox last night ..... Top Output ..... FF 1.0.2
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
14436 xxxx 15 0 245m 173m 39m S 0.3 34.4 12:20.63 firefox-bin
Thats not the "lightweight" Firefox it used to be ..... :/
3 Tabs open containing about 400k of HTML/media (Adblock and Mouse Gestures are the only plugins)
If I left this instance running for more than another 18 hours my console will start swapping like a biatch and the machine becomes un-useable. (10 secs to action a mouse cursor movement on the screen)
Crtl Alt F1 - fixes this, as it normally kills Firefox instantly because it needs to grab some memory for the tty. Otherwise its just a case of manually killing it by PID number on a very slow console.
Also why the FF has its own "appearance/themes" and will not conform to your current Window Manager settings is beyond me.
However FF is still the best there is and thats why I use it along side w3m. IMO
If you have not guessed by now - Linux - FF 1.0.2
