For example, new tabs open/close after about a half-second pause. I notice when I do this, the CPU activity spikes to about 25% and dies down. Sometimes typing text will pause as well. Its behavior is as if it was bogged down with a memory leak.

If anyone is still having problems, I seem to be having much better results after uninstalling the Facebook Toolbar.

I don't know if this was the cause, but the browser feels normal after upgrading Adobe Flash Player to the latest version. Thanks!
