My typical usage has not changed from FF10<br />
which did not have this same magnitude problem.<br />
<br />
Open over a day about 30 tabs in 2 windows.<br />
(Response is fast when started ).<br />
Continue to use for several days ( machine and FF stay up).<br />
Response gradually, almost unnoticeably slows.<br />
And then it slows quicker.. <br />
you end up with 10-15 second waits for any click<br />
or keypress.<br />
<br />
Closing 10 windows does not help.<br />
There is no swap activity happening<br />
via LED on front panel during use.<br />
<br />
Box is 2.8 Ghz with 1 gig RAM.<br />
java is not enabled, javascript is.<br />
Download helper, FireFTP are installed, not used,<br />
and adobe flash is installed.<br />
<br />
