ff 3.6, ff6 does not help

but

i find a solution.
i swap browsers (ff/chrome) in the middle of rounds of tournet so i can play without lags =/

was chrome open while you used ff 3.6? because it crash with me too when it's open next to chrome

ps. did you check what's eating/leaking your RAM up?
that would really help you if me/dead knew

Your problem is that something is taking all your RAM space making your mac lag hard

smurf.

no memory leaks =/ 1.5-2gb used only
ff just crashed after 5-10 games.
chrome - lose browser speed and load cpu at 100% so my mac is hot after that games

i do:
1) use one browser
2) pay 4-8 games and then run second browser wit h same link
3) close (kill, or quit) first browser
4) play 4-8 games and repeat this algorithm

^_^
this really helps. i can play and swap takes 2-20 secs only =)

just marketing reaction. apple does not support flash player on iOS and flash player does not support mac ^_^

if the browser is using 1GB then that is the issue you said 1.5GB RAM out of 2GB right?

hm...

now free is 1.6 and all memory goes to "reserved" (plus 1mb each 10 seconds)

so... after an hour there will be no free memory =/

WHY ?

chrome use slackwave player (stand alone app), ff seems use nothing (build-in plugin)

that "stand alone app" is the flash plug-in THAT is the sucker that keeps leaking my RAM
what i did after every game i played was 'force close' the plug-in making it "reset" all the memory without closing the browser

why it does that, i don't know but Kdice is the only site that does that to my browser so hard

this is a known problem betwen addobe flash and apple

i hope some of this helps :]
