Certainly not if you need a stable Flash.

(NB: perhaps that is an oxymoron.)

  I've had Firefox over 1 GB under "normal" conditions.  Granted, I had over 
100 tabs open, but that's not unusual for me.  (This was also before I learned 
about BarTab.)

  I've had Firefox crash because it hit the 2 GB 32-bit per-process limit, but 
that was because I was trying to download a 4+ GB DVD image and there's 
apparently a memory leak in the download routines.  It's apparently a tiny 
leak, but tiny times many equals large.

  Does this justify a 64-bit browser?  Prolly not.  :-)
