I've come to rely on a number of Firefox extensions. I've tried to use Chrome, though not Safari, as I move between OSes and want to have the same browser everywhere, if possible. Chrome wasn't really much better with memory consumption and prevented me from doing a lot of things that I wanted to do that were easy with Firefox and extensions.

Sort of. They've at least improved [url=about:memory]about:memory[/url]. There's also a meta-bug about memory issues.
