[QUOTE="XJ-linux, post: 752696, member: 33722"] Firefox 3.0.3 on a new MBP with no issues. An earlier 3.0.x version (don't remember which) did the high fan thing to me on my previous MB. This caused me to switch to Safari. I recently reinstalled Firefox to version 3.0.3 because Safari was sitting on 300 to 400MB of RAM after running for a day or so. Firefox seems to use about half of that and does not seem to creep up the RAM usage as Safiri seems to do now. Odd as Safari has run just fine for a year or so. Thus far no fan issues but I just started using it again this past weekend. [/QUOTE]
