It's not only a problem for reading, a lot of my tabs are not articles. Some are but some are useful projects, startups or things I may need which I want to look at later, but have no way to save at the moment.

The worst part is when Firefox gets to 500mb+ and I want to restart it to free up some memory. I used to save all the open URLs in a notepad file then reopen them, but lately I've just been killing the process then letting FF recover them itself... this is probably bad practice.

Yes, i've got a Macbook Pro. Which i'd say is pretty fast. Having all these URLs makes chrome slow down until when typing I have to wait for it to catch up.
