Hi, everybody,

Recently Firefox updated itself and since that time my machine – an elderly W7 -- has been running slow.  In the resource manager I noticed that where it used to open one process, sometimes as large as half a gig, it now opens several processes, the total of which can easily exceed 1 G.  At that point, my machine runs like molasses.  Is Firefox no longer browser to the stars?
