Yeah, I pay for my own gear though, and my 2yo MBP is limited to
2Gb... :-/

Biggest downside I think we found to Camino was the lack of Firefox
plugins. Especially when you're relying on things like FoxyProxy,
it does create a bit of an issue using Camino full-time. If you're
not worried about though, and/or all you want to do is just test
your code, it might not hurt to have a copy of Camino set up to do
exactly what you want, and use FF/Safari for everything else.
I'd tended to use the Intel native/optimized builds of Firefox
(BonEcho and the like), and never bothered worrying about memory
usage. Over time with FF you just grow to accept things are
slow ... or buy/demand a new machine.

Camino is supposed to be pretty fast.
Its a little bit more difficult to set up your proxies but it is
possible.
I was using Camino but I currently use Firefox.

Anyone got a recommendation?
I've been using Firefox, but it seems to bloat memory-wise the longer
it runs - often consuming >500Mb after a while. As FB3 also is a
memory hog, this makes it hard to run on a 2Gb machine.
All I really need it a lightweight browser that can load the Flash
plugin.
