Jeff,
I just did a quick test (refresh tool bar multiple
times while watching memory usage of Firefox) and it
does look like the yahoo toolbar exacerbates the
Firefox memory hole as much as the mozdev yahoo
toolbar.  I will let the browser run all day and all
night to see what it does long term as well.
Regards,
Shane
