Arthur,
We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Presumably this problem was a one time occurrence and/or is no longer an
issue? Can this bug report now be closed?
If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in
approximately 60 days time.
Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
Firefox huge memory usage on amd64 (memory leak)
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Behaviour I have seen:
* Start firefox
* Memory usage: ~250MB
* Use normally for 30 minutes to an hour (3-6 tabs a new page loaded every
couple of minutes)
* Memory usage: ~990MB (I have seen it get as high as 1.4GB)
The memory usage does go down when I close tab and the like but
overall it only increase and the bulk of it is never freed.
I did not have this problem on Firefox 3 on 32bit (it leaked but much
slower).
