I must be running a different version to you. Currently I've 9 tabs open and it's consuming more than 1.8GB of RAM. It's barely come down since I closed 10-12 or so others.

I know if I restart it that'll drop down to a few hundred meg.

Been like this as long as I can remember. I always have to restart Firefox every few days to allow it to clean itself up.
