Did they finally get rid of the HORRIBLE memory leak bug that they call a feature?
I honestly now think that konqueror has surpassed firefox 1.x both when it comes to speed and stability.

The problem with firefox is this: When you close an open tab, it dosent free up all the memory. I personally open a tab for nearly every link and then close them afterwards. After a day of surfing my firefox takes up around 1gig of ram even after closing all the open tabs. The only fix=complete shutdown/restart of firefox.

This is probably not so noticable for people who only open an occisional tab.
