Let's put it this way for me I'm looking at a blank minimised Firefox  
(2.0.0.12) taking up 8 threads and a steady 3% of my CPU, I'm typing this  
in Opera (9.25.8887) with five tabs open and 5 threads; it blips between  
0.4% and 2% with the occasional blip up to 20% when it's picking up  
messages or switching tabs. According to AIDA Firefox is using 19316KB and  
Opera 15644KB.
