Hi Jan I'm running Windows XP all patched.
I just checked Firebug's loading performance using a new profile and Nightly (via Mozilla Profile Manager) and the good news for everyone else is that it's running fine. Caveats though: I only had a couple of tabs open whereas my previous experience in this current older profile was with about 22 open. Secondly it was a very quick test. I did use the same site though. *sigh* Looks like it's back to the old "you've got too many add-ons" rank PITA. Boy I really wish my patience with Mozilla's borked add-on infrastructure was rewarded more often. Jan is the Hueyfix as big a bonus to you as it seems to me? I know we've talked about memory leak issues and you've been trying hard but were finding it difficult AFAIK. Can we really expect a substantial leap forward in terms of memory leak reduction in Firebug (when not using one of my old profiles or conflicting extensions)? I'm really very excited by the potential of the Hueyfix because, to be honest, I think all the native web developer tools momentum has been secretly based on the impression that Firebug's memory leaks were terminal. If the vast majority of Firebug's memory leaks are now behind it, the future Firebug vs native webdeveloper tools looks much better for Firebug :) LONG LIVE THE 'BUG!
