Here's a blog entry that came to me from another list.  Seems FFx 
developers are taking the memory problem seriously after all:

Most importantly, in the short term, you might want to try this tool 
mentioned in the comments:
"I have FF loaded with add-ons, multiple tabs open, and have no problem 
with it eating up memory. One of the add-ons is CacheStatus which I have 
set to dump RAM at 20MB."
I'm not using FFx enough at this point to give a serious test of that 
extension as I'm spending 90% of my time in Camino, with the rest about 
evenly split between Safari, FFx (PC & Mac) and IE for testing.
