[Tfug] RE: equivalent of top(1) for firefox?

[Mike Martinet]

The latest version of firefox is 1.5.0.1 in which, supposedly, they've fixed a memory leak as well as some other stuff.

I'm not sure about the directory thing - I have a ~/.mozilla/firefox and a ~/.thunderbird.

I'm wondering if that's because I installed firefox globally and I installed thunderbird as a user?

Hmmm.
