I'm using Firefox 3.5.1, and am seeing this behavior on both windows vista, and mac leopard. I've also encountered the same behavior with both firebug 1.4.0 and 1.4.1.
If I load a page with firebug enabled, and repeatedly reload that page (say to see the impact of changes), over time Firefox's memory usage will slowly creep up - easily maxing out my available ram, and thrashing the disk. I'm not just sitting and hitting reload either, I'm working for several minutes between reloads each time. With firebug disabled, the memory usage for the particular page I'm testing with (rather javascript heavy, extjs, several hundred kb of data loaded via ajax) stays rather constant (~113MB physical memory, +/- ~3MB on my mac). FYI, I tested this with all other extensions uninstalled. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
