I still find Firefox fast, but it is very crashy on my machine lately, usually at least once a day.

And even more annoying it'll all of a sudden decide to start pausing.. the whole browser will just hang for 2-3 seconds every 30 seconds or so, and I have to shut the browser down completely and restart it to get it to go away.

I tried switching to Chrome but the memory usage was way worse, after a day's work and normal usage I was over 1.3GB of RAM for Chrome!

So I'm hoping Firefox 4 can be better.
