User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 Build ID: 20111104165243 Steps to reproduce: I closed a tab containing a Flash video. Actual results: I noticed that the plug-in container did not terminate. Expected results: Plug-in container processes belonging to closed tabs should be terminated in order to free up more memory. It doesn't make sense to keep such processes existing.
