Uh? I don't notice that, and I have quite a few bookmarks. The menu just snaps open. Anyway, Firefox has been on a diet for the last year. Only it's not really "Firefox" who is on a diet, but Gecko. Which means that Seamonkey should reap most of the benefits too. However, there is a delay between an improvement being announced as "landed" and it actually showing up in a release version. For instance, there was recently an announcement of a patch that greatly reduces the problem of add-ons "leaking" memory. Only, of course, the patch landed on the *trunk*. Which means that it won't see the light of the day until Firefox 15, scheduled for August 15 I believe (Current Beta version is FF 13, Aurora is FF 14). That is, if no serious problems are found with this patch while undergoing the Aurora and Beta stabilization phases. If a serious problem is found, this feature might be delayed a bit more. But it's a Gecko patch, meaning that if FF 15 has it, SM 2.12 (also due in August) should have it too. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
