Thanks! FYI, the only plugin I use is the Flash plugin (provided by mozilla-plugin-gnash since this is a PowerPC machine). I've also looked at "about:cache" (I didn't know that). It says: Memory cache device Number of entries: 540 Maximum storage size: 9216 KiB Storage in use: 32633 KiB Inactive storage: 0 KiB I don't understand why Storage in use > Maximum storage size! Note that I did *not* change the configuration since I started Iceweasel. Also I'm seeing this problem: Firefox's memory usage may increase if it's left open for long periods of time. A workaround for this is to periodically restart Firefox. This is a bit annoying. Also this doesn't explain why Firefox periodically (every few seconds) uses CPU time. I've noticed the same problem under Mac OS X, so that this isn't specific to the OS. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
