In the first place I thought that the problem was connected with the OOPP so I changed the values dom.ipc.plugins.* to false in about:config but the problem was still there.

I tried even in safe-mode but the problem is still there.

(Maybe with only 4 tabs the problem is not so evident but with 25 is very inconvenient)

Are you sure of those steps to reproduce?  Is that all?  Do you have to view streaming video to reproduce the problem?  I see no problem here on XP.

Cannot reproduce any bug.

Reporter acknowledges at http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=10346591#p10346591 that memory levels out with time.  VM levels out around 80 MB on my computer (930 MHz P III with 384 MB).  Web site has busy scripts plus feeds.  CPU levels out around 20-50%, but Chromium also uses 30% on my other, much faster Ubuntu computer.
