Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110215 Firefox/4.0b12pre

Bug 633382 fixed the extreme memory consumption but there is probably still room for improvements. As given on bug 633382 comment 37 Firefox has a double memory usage when opening the given page with PageTweak installed:

          enabled     disabled
Memory     350MB       150MB

Also the cpu load is way higher and stays at this level for a longer time, nearly twice as long.

This is a regression from Firefox 3.6 which also only uses 150MB but with PageTweak enabled.
With the GC/CC scheduling fix (630932) this settles down at 150MB for me after an initial spike where pagetweak seems to do all sorts of crazy stuff.
