  I do know that the 64 bit fedora beta 4 (there is no 64 bit
mozilla.org as, last I read a while ago, they are not comfortable the
code is 64 bit clean) had terrible problems from beta 4 (tho beta 3  was
fine).

  I switched to 32 bit mozilla.org 3.0pre (on x64 install of f11) and
the problems went away.

  The beta 4 (from updates-testing) started the indexing thing - and
then it took 100% cpu and memory growth went to 3.5 GiB - after a period
memory use fell to 200 MiB, cpu declined .. then it repeated this cycle
several times .. i left this for 6 hours - eventually tb locked up and
left a dirty screen image - stuck - cpu usage went to 0 for TB. I had to
hand kill it.

  Installing the stock mozilla 386 build has no such problems.

  I suspect there is some 64 very unclean code underlying the problem.
Tho it could be beta 4 versus pre as well.

  best,
