BTW, I missed this. What does that mean?

I'm running FF as a .sfs (which helped my frugal save file space a lot).
Go into about:config, search for "ipc" and disable the plugins. They're resource hogs. I'm guessing the SFS saves your settings in the .mozilla folder. I run a hard copy from my HD with a /root link

Thanks, I just turned them off. We'll see if that helps.

Yes, the SFS still saves junk in .mozilla, but it doesn't store the FF code in the save file (first time I'd had 3 green bars in a long time) -- and I also moved that out into /root/home/puppy528/ (where I store all my 5.28 junk).

I run all frugals -- and just recently got around to dumping all of the 4.31 saves, and the 5.20 saves...
