I also have this problem, but on a Windows laptop with 2GB. However, Firefox has recently been crashing several times per day, which sorted out the long-running memory problem but rather inconveniences usage.

It's a shame because I really do prefer it to the other browsers, for a variety of reasons.

As I said to the parent: please report your problems. Please include about:memory data. Vague complaints in online forums don't help us fix things.
