The above is from 'top' as of right now. As I am not on YouTube right now and Swap isn't being used, there is /currently/ no slowdown in performance.

YouTube also has music. Some individual tracks from albums will also display a static video, it's usually the album cover for the duration of the track.

Ok that's good info, but you need to show the initial state, and then the state after xxx minutes showing the problem.

It sounds like a 'youtube' issue, as opposed to a SeaMonkey issue. You need to do the same test with some media that is not on youtube, e.g. put it on your own web server. The videos that just show an album cover are not music, they are videos, but with just one frame repeated, I'm not sure if it plays the same frame thousands of times, or if it somehow knows there's only one frame and freezes it, but either way, it's still a video.

If you can show that playing a music file in SeaMonkey, that is not on youtube, is using progressively more memory as it plays, then that would be a serious problem in SeaMonkey. Do you know which libraries SeaMokey uses behind the scenes to play media files?
