I use Chrome as my primary browser right now but I'm going to give FF7 a whirl.
If it's drastically reduced, whatever its using now is still way too much imo.

Didn't they just split the memory usage between the firefox.exe process and the plugin-container process? It's a good thing when the plugins crash that it doesn't crash firefox as well (you just reload the plugin), but it's still hogging alot of memory.
