I wonder if there is a memory issue? This particular desktop is nine
years old, runs Linux exclusively and has 3.6Gb of memory, using LXDE
desktop.
Yes, current stable SeaMonkey (old Gecko engine) leaks and hogs a lot
due to many bloated web sites like LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Google
Maps, etc. :(
I have had Seamonkey (2.49.4, as most of you can see) open for around 13
hours now and it has been getting slower and slower for an hour or two.
When things got too bad to ignore, I closed the Google Maps tab (in a
private window) that had been open for pretty much all that time.
Seamonkey was back to its responsive best immediately.
I'd checked about:memory - and memory usage generally - shortly before
doing this and things looked pretty much normal, there was little
difference between Before and After. The Swapfile was not in use.
It was amazing what a difference one Google Maps tab made.
