That's one of my pet peeves lately. At work (admittedly on an old version - Mozilla 1.7.2 - but the alternative is IE5, which won't even run LJ properly these days...), there's one particular message board where I can watch the memory usage climb, and climb, and climb, and climb; if I'm really actively reading, Firefox will crash after about 3 hours because it's eaten up all the virtual memory.
I'd blamed it on the site - which I'm sure contributes - but yeah, the browser needs to be able to keep up with the user's demands.
