Hi Mal, No, you are not the only one. I'am using Firefox v26 on Windows 7 64-bit. One of my TW5s has about 1200 tidllers, only a few images and the size is a little bit over 3 MB. Clearing the $:/HistoryList did help in the past, especially for the size, but doesn't help anymore.
Surprisingly, it works fast with Firefox v16, which I use for TWc in combination with TiddlySnip (FF16 was the last version that worked with TiddlySnip). At the moment I don't know if it has something to do with add-ons and/or the number of tabs open.
