3.0b5 is beachballing and crashing significantly less than the last version of 2 I used. - Devin Dawson via Alert Thingy
@Devin Depends which build you have. I had the same problem, updated, gone. - Charlie Anzman
I'm experimenting with no extensions and I haven't had a single crash, or a lick of memory issues. The problems is the greatest strength of Firefox also appears to be its greatest weakness. I think eventually there is going to need to be more "control" over extensions with strict testing. Everyone being able to make extensions "willy nilly" is hurting the Firefox brand. - Vince DeGeorge
@Vince Mozilla is working with the developers of popular extensions to provide them with memory-leak- and crash-data. I'm hoping for Firefox 4 though, which will be based on Mozilla 2, which will be a big change in the underlying architecture, though. They will fix many of these problems, as far as I could read from the information available so far. But you can't do much against badly written extensions. - sebmos
fred - what version are you using? 3 beta 5? - Dave
I've lost more important blog posts and personal data through browser hangs, inadvertent page navigation, and so on that I'm willing to remember. Browsers jshould ust backup form data to the file system until it's submitted. This is a huge productivity hole in Web apps in my experience. - Dion Hinchcliffe via twhirl
I am just gun shy of losing edits in FF forms for my posts and comments. I always select all and copy periodically - Alan Wilensky via Alert Thingy
I write blog posts in Gmail and email the post via MessageDance. Gmail saves the draft constantly and MessageDance lets you attach images, files, images in-line, and tags/labels. Here's one I posted last night: http://tinyurl.com/3lg8h7 - Geoff
