Firebug 1.6a1 is not compatible with firefox 3.5.7 so i installed firefox 3.6 Beta 5 and firebug 1.6a1. I disabled all addons and plugins excepting firebug and restarted firefox. I opened firebug and have enabled all panels. I made a lot of reloads over ~30 minutes at this site. At the beginning firefox was using ~75 MB of memory. The memory usage increased a very little with every reload. After the 30 minutes i cleared the cache and firefox was using ~200 MB of memory. After this i visited some sites to look if the freezes are back and i can confirm it. The freezes comes every ~10-30 seconds and freezes the browser for ~1 second. Not only this, I got a new issue. Firefox is writing all letters at any page with a delay. If I do nothing the overall cpu usage is between 0 and 2%. If I type only a letter the cpu usage increases to 50% (2 core processor).
