E-mail from Roan:
Are you sure Firefox is really choking on Wikipedia in particular? 
   Yes
Do the pages you mentioned *always* crash Firefox? 
   Yes...that version ("completely repeatable" per original report)
Did you close any other tabs you might have first (so you're sure the problem
isn't happening in another tab)? 
Yes (rather...didn't have any other tabs open at the time).

Do the pages in question happen to be big (seems to be, the Fat Man
page is 361K of wikitext)? 
 Guess so, at least this and ANI are big.
If so, does Firefox choke on other big pages as well? 
 Doesn't regularly fail on ANI for instance, just certain incarnations.
(my original post is in archive 480 at ANI, but of course that is not a
duplicate
of the status of the page when I posted it originally).

Did you check it's not an out-of-memory issue or some other issue unrelated to
the 
web page? 

No I didn't. How would I go about doing that? (I don't have root access on the
system in question but of course I can ask my system manager).

Brion: No, I wasn't even logged in, but I don't use these even when I am.
