If I open too many tabs in Firefox, it becomes extremely slow, sometimes

gnome-abrt, since the memory dump is too large. Has anyone else seen this?
I have a lot of tabs open in firefox and it does start getting slow
after a while. It depends a lot on what websites you have loaded. When
Firefox gets slow like that, open a terminal and run the "top" command.
Check what the CPU and memory usage are for the firefox process. Also
see if you can tell what they are for the Plasma Workspace process as
well. I don't know what the process name would be, but you can press
shift-m to sort the list by memory usage which should bring them both to
the top.
I would like to report this as a bug, but I'm not sure which bugzilla to
report it to.
It sounds like there are two issues here. The first is that Firefox
gets slow, which would be a Mozilla issue. You could try closing tabs
to see if you can find out which site(s) are causing the problem. The
second issue is that Plasma Workspace crashes. That one could be filed
in the Fedora bugzilla, but first check if there are any related issues
already filed there.
