Details

Maybe we should clear the browser and hide the tab. That way we can reuse it for the next tabopen. JS profiling shows it can take 500ms to removeChild the browser, while it only takes 3ms to removeChild the tab. Likewise, it can take 120ms to create a browser. If we just shutdown the browser when closing and then reuse it when opening a new tab, we can save some significant time overall.
I think this is the same behavior reported in bug 534579. Since there hasn't been any work done on either bug, I'd like to add the reported comment in this bug to the other and set this to resolved:duplicate.
