Until Tab Mix Plus is available for 2 I'm upgrading to 1.5.x. I cannot tolerate the browser stealing application focus... I do use other applications in my multitasking OS. When an upload is running in any tab and I minimize FX eventually (often too quickly) it'll pop back up as the ontop application tempting me to loudly curse at the LCD. Tab Mix Plus contained this 'feature' nicely.
I am pleased to see that I can open a dozen tabs and eventually FX will release memory, but I'm not thrilled that the cost of this development is savage CPU domination. I can live with 200-900 megs ram usage to free up some power.
