[Discuss] Mozilla freeze ups

[Jerry Feldman]

For quite a while I have had Thunderbird freeze up for a period of time.
But more recently I have found the firefox is doing a similar thing.
Normally, when I run Firefox, I start with BLU.org, iGoogle, and Gmail.
Both iGoogle and Gmail are script based. And maybe 1 or 2 assorted tabs.
This is on Fedora 16 with a quad-core AMD processor and
firefox-12.0-1.fc16.x86_64. Top (viewing CPU) will show firefox sitting
right at the top. I have not done any research on this yet. I am
wondering if anyone else has been seeing similar behavior especially on
a recent 64-bit Linux with 64-bit firefox. As far as the Thunderbird
issue, there are a multitude of reasons, including possibly corrupted
mbox files. I don't thing the Tbird and the firefox issues are related,
but it is a possibility. While there are some features of Firefox I
prefer over Chrome, I might simply switch to Chrome.
