does your firefox/thunderbird use excessive cpu/memory/file access?

I don't think it's a memory leak; minimizing the app seems to release most of the memory.

Minimizing the app only releases some of the memory (it looks like it gets cut in half). I guess that's not so bad if I just have to minimize it from time to time rather than closing it up and re-opening it.
