My problem is Firefox will run reasonably fast - for a while, I do have quite a few tabs open, They start out in background mode, but as soon as I access them (to view or download from them) even if I close them as I go, FF will start to slow down and it isnt long before FF drops to a crawl sometimes taking MINUTES to answer a click on the file menu (example) no fancy benchmarks needed.

Having to restart FF and hoping your tabs come back for a temp. speedboost is NOT acceptable. I have to restart at least 3-5x a day - anyone else think this is stupid?

I have 6 gigs ram, XP 32 only uses about 3.5 of it, 2.33ghz core duo, plenty of drive space.

I understand that after using Firefox for a while there are some issues with speed. Quick fixes if your Firefox slows down
