I can't confirm this under x.org 6.8.2 with a firefox installation from
mozilla.org. I've been running the latest three firefox versions non-stop
with only restarting them upon a new release. This is with daily heavy
surfing and sometimes hundreds of tabs open. The memory eating problem may
or may not be extension related or it may be confined to certain
combinations of hardware/drivers.
