Downloading a file larger than what the disk cache is set to will halt the browser and eventually require the task to be killed. I tested by setting the disk cache to 4096 and then tried downloading mozilla nightly. The browser freeze after obtaining 4096KB of the zip file.

Oooh! this explains the problems I have been having recently! I had left the disk cache enabled, but I had set its size to 0 This had been working for many moons, but suddenly, within the last few days, I was getting lockups on every page I tried to load.
