Not often, no. But it does just happens sometimes. I mean, I've even had my work computer crash on me once. But then, that's once in, what, a year and a half now? My laptop here occasionally grinds to a halt, but I have a feeling that's more about being underrammed and nearly full harddrived.
Speaking of which, 2 1GB RAM sticks were literally just posted through my door. Must power down!
Well, 'awesome' is possibly overstating the matter, and FF still took ages to load up, but general windows processes seem to be running faster. We'll see whether I still get the 'running out of virtual memory' alert when I run FF and Potatoshop at the same time.
Two things make FF load faster for me. Firstly, cutting down on the number of addons it's loading (I found a bunch of stuff I never used), and installing BarTab, which stops it reloading all of the saved tabs on startup (they're still there, but dormant until you select them).
I tend not to bother saving my session. Also I don't really have many add-ons, although looking at it now I appear to have like a bazillion versions of Java Console. Might remove all of them and then presumably I'll be prompted when it becomes necessary to add whichever is the right one.
Just disabled all of mine. Starting FF now takes less than 5 seconds (admittedly that was when it had been open, dunno how long a cold start would take).
Ah well, nevermind; I was wondering if there were other hidden ones I wasn't seeing, aside from the ones I've installed; but I only have about four and I do use them constantly, so c'est la vie.
