Updated to 4.0 today and have things about where I would like them, but memory usage is at least 4 times higher than 3.6.15. I attribute some of that to AFOM not being compatible and being disabled, but I can hit 1.9GB with all my open tabs where 3.6.15 is around 500MB.

Is there something I can do? A memory manager for 4.0?

I'm afraid this will turn out to be unusable.

Well, FF4 definitely uses more memory than FF 3.6. No doubt for me. I have it under control by being lucky enough to get a beta copy of a memory manager for FF4, but without that I would have had to switch back to FF 3.6.

It still uses more memory than I think it should and strains the resources on my machine.
