My system always throws a low memory error when firefox is running for couple of hours. I do open some 20 tabs in firefox at a time usually but even sometimes when there are less than 4 tabs it still throws me this erros.. and the only way out is to shut down firefox. memory usage is 692,113K .. I guess its a real big memory leak .

hello, can you provide a screenshot of this message. depending on how many RAM you have available and on the complexity of open tabs 700.000k RAM usage may not be that unusual for modern browsers...
