Damn that's a LOT of memory for those processes. And wow, 9G for only 56 tabs? I currently have around 2600 tabs open (yeah I know, time to do some clean-up), I always assumed that was the reason why my firefox was using so much memory.

Have you tried Ctrl-Tabbing through all open tabs, to load them all in? It's be interesting to see how much memory it uses then.

Oh I don't think my computer could handle that! I usually have to restart firefox anyway whenever I do a clean-up and close a few hundred tabs.
