If you want to be truly scared, kick up xrestop and have a look at the
size of the pixmaps Firefox is cahing in the X server. I've seen it eat
>200Mb in there... and that, of course, is *in addition* to the
existing Firefox bloat.

(Mind you with my XEmacs needing twice-daily restarts as it bloats to
>750Mb RSS, I'm not really one to talk. But that's an outright bug and
it's going to get fixed if it's the last thing I do.)
