Try one of the other work-arounds in bug #660646. One suggests a
PrefBar
button; if you have the PrefBar extension installed, the Expire History

<http://prefbar.tuxfamily.org/buttons.html#expirehistory>. Although I
created that button, I now use the "Expire history by days" extension
from
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/expire-history-by-days/>.
I
know it works with SeaMonke 2.46; I do not know if the PrefBar button
still
works with 2.46.

I second this PrefBar suggestion since I still use its purge my SM's
history
daily to keep only the last 29 days. Its JS button says:
"// This script was suggested by "al_9x" in a comment in bug #660646
Components.classes['@mozilla.org/browser/nav-history-service;1'].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIBrowserHistory).removeVisitsByTimeframe(0,
(new Date().setHours(0, 0, 0, 0) - (parseInt(prompt('Days of history to
keep', 29)) - 1) * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000) * 1000 - 1)"
I did read about the PrefBar extension. However, I thought I had recalled
reading in that Buzilla thread that the PrefBar was using exactly the same
expression internally do purge browser history. If that is the case,
that would
mean that PrefBar would no longer work with SM 2.46, since that is my
problem in
the first place, that the expression no longer works in the error console
evaluation. Are you currently using PrefBar in SM 2.46? I have no
verification
from anyone that PrefBar, which uses the exact same expression, is
currently
working in SM 2.46.
It seems to work for my SM since I quick check my histories often. When
I purge the histories, I can feel the small short pauses too.
