and <a href="https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/web/ChromeExtensionIssues">ChromeExtensionIssues</a>. Beyond them I have had some inconsistent
behavior in Chrome (where, for example, middle mouse button doesn't
always open something in a new tab); such inconsistencies drive me up
the wall.</p>

It made a huge difference in the CPU load I got from FireFox (just on the release channel, currently on v12) - I selectively enable scripts for a few sites, but most stay blocked, giving me far fewer "spinning beachball" incidents (I'm on Mac OS X).</p>
