Public bug reported: I'm experiencing a memory allocation of 9 GB (in comparison of ~300 MB with 10 add-ons installed and ~5 tabs opened) when I want to download a large file ([funtoo generic_64 stage3 tarball][1], 158MB) from a `pyload` instance in my LAN. After the slow massive memory during moderate CPU usage which takes about 5 minutes the system is so unresponsive that it has to be killed. During the memory allocation certain bursts of responsiveness and data transfer (40 MB/s for 1 or 2 seconds of possible 100 MB/s) occur. The issue seems to be related to the fact that the available transfer in LAN is very high; it doesn't occur over 100 Mbit/s-LAN and not when the pyload instance is running on the same machine and accessed under localhost localhost. There're no issues with pyload at all and files with 50 MB size transfer perfectly.
Problem was reproduced with `-safe-mode` option.
