Public bug reported: I was browsing Amazon website using Firefox. It took 1 minute + to do a search in the site. I cleared the cache and it was fine. I have not changed the original cache setting, which is automatic. I noticed that the 'currently using' was 350MB & that 'limit cache to' was grayed out as 350MB. I cleared the cache and it was fine.
This was using Ubuntu 12.04.1 using Firefox 18.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.3.
