Hi,

I have the same behaviour here on my known-good memory (8GiByte)
'workstation', both for Firefox (have about 100 tabs open, spread over
four windows) and Thunderbird, w/Thunderbird having 'uptimes' of a few
weeks regularly, while FF tends to crash every ten to 15 days (give or
take).

To sum it up: I don't really think it's a memory problem. It can't be
excluded, of course, but maybe there's more crash prone stuff in there.
