It's time for Seamonkey to just do security and stability releases like IE8
does instead of having to update new versions all the time. It's confusing
and scary. I'm still back at Mozilla 1.78 for my email and newsgroups and
use IE8 for my browser because after following this group I'm afraid to up grade.

I was reading this Firefox article

Stop Hogging Memory & Let You Browse Faster? [REVIEW]" Please read some
of the comments below the article.
This article made me wonder how many of the issues/problems discussed
with Firefox are also problems found in SeaMonkey?
Questions:
1. What are your experiences with SeaMonkey compared to other browsers
such as Chrome, Opera, or other modern browser?
2. In your experience is SeaMonkey a memory hog? is is slow (i.e. slow
to open webpages)?
3. Is SeaMonkey improving or getting worse with each version?
Topic for discussion:
Apple set a goal for Mac OS X Leopard (v 10.5) that this release would
not focus on adding new features to the operating system but would focus
on stability. The result was that when Leopard was released it was one
of the better OS releases, since it was very stable. Should the
SeaMonkey (Firefox?) developers follow Apple's lead and take a pause in
the development of the application and focus for a couple of releases
only on stability issues (and security issues) rather than developing
new features?
I think it is time to pause the development of SeaMonkey and focus the
next few releases on stabilizing the application.
