This report is basically useless since it's far too general. There are known memory issues in firefox, some of which are leaks, others which are poor memory management. Make sure your Flash player is up to date (9.0r28 for windows) and make sure your other plugins are up-to-date too. Try in firefox's safemode to see if that changes anything ( http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode ) and give http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/memusage.html a read. Firefox 3 will have a spiffy new cycle collector in which will hopefully help matters. But unless you can come up with definite examples of firefox leaking memory (as opposed to having bad memory management) then there's not much point in a bug.
