I don't know what they eventually chose, though. @anon: scheduling and prioritization of Firefox processes is pretty far down the road right now ;).

The way I read forums on line is generally to go to "view new posts" page, then just ctrl-click on all the threads I want to look at. This is a killer for FF, and generally the browser stops and starts responding for a period of several minutes, depending on things like posts/thread, graphics, number of new tabs.... A process per tab would be excellent for me... and might even convince me to upgrade FF from v2, as I am avoiding the new URL bar. I should think this has been proposed, but how about the foreground tab being at higher priority than the background tabs? That'd help us poor single corers too ;) I’m glad this feature is finally on its way, thanks for the work on it to everyone involved.
