Firefox, in my experience, has a memory leak. Put it this way, the longer I leave it running, the more memory it uses. Eventually (after three or four days), I notice it using 90,000K then 100,000K+, then it crashes.

Your mileage may vary, and I have no experience with Opera or FAH memory needs.

What I do know is that Firefox benefits from being shut down and restarting.

Camino is my favorite browser. Not sure why though... just to be different perhaps.
