This may be a FF issue, but it's Tiddlywiki and Tiddlyback related in this, imho. Maybe there is something to be done here besides closing FF out. I'm hopeful something that be done because I generally have several hundred tabs between 5-10 windows open at all times (tabbed window trees are amazing) with 40-60 add-ons and other tweaks sitting at ~4GB without running into that problem.
