This is an issue common to all browsers, even after they stopped
running, they do no return all the physical memory allocated to them.
There was an interesting article in c't magazin last year, can't find it
anymore about that topic. Firefox does worst and sadly it is becoming
ever more bloated, even though the guys at the Mozilla foundation
pledged to remedy that when they issued version 4.0. Back then there
really was a noticeable improvement, but by now all that has completely
vanished and in fact worsened.

You state that you sometimes have serious issues with certain websites?
From what you say, I deduce that this happens nearly every time you hit
these sites. In case this happens also when using a different browser,
this appears to be rather scary and is less of an issue of FF than these
crappy (or even malevolent) webpages.

I would guess starting a different browser to continue surfing the net,
when the first one freezed up should the better, since faster option in
your case.
