I can leave the computer for five minutes discovering it had crashed when I 
return.

Similarly my laptop. I've yet to try it on -CURRENT (also on the same 
laptop) though.

What extensions do you have installed? (If you want you can send the list 
to me privately.) I uninstalled ghostery which made it more stable though 
when I took the dog for a quick walk I discovered the browser was gone upon 
my return. For the moment it appears stable (knock on wood).
