My CPU is running now at 30%, while this Firefox session is open. I have about 20 tabs open, including some youtube tabs. From previous experience, I know that I can deal with this by restarting Firefox. I can also just close the problematic tab(s).

Is there any way of figuring out which tabs I need to close? Is there a Firefox "process explorer" which lists the CPU usage of each tab? I thought I read that this was a new feature, but I can't find it.

Sorry no, all tabs run in the same process, but plugins in Firefox 3.6.4+ versions run in their own "container" process.

Your plugins list shows outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

  1. Shockwave Flash 10.0 r45
  2. Java Plug-in 1.6.0_11 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

Update the Java and Flash plugin to the latest version. See http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp#jdk (you need JRE) http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
