I still use FF for almost everything, but it is definitely much less stable these days. The most significant thing I have found is that if I turn off all the add-ons, things improve dramatically. A few observations:
- Firebug is a HUGE resource hog. Turn it off unless you specifically need it. - If you monitor memory usage and restart FF periodically, it plays nice with others. - Tabs are great but we've become tab junkies. Do I really need eight other open tabs while I type this message? The Mozilla team needs to take a hard look at real-world usage and get their hands around what's wrong.

And yes, flash is definitely part of it ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
