Your firefox does not crash by itself. It is wiped out by the system
when the process size reaches the maximum memory size you allowed to be
requested by your user.
Already seen with 5.1, 5.2 and if what i'm remembering is correct 5.0.
(No change made on any binaries). Memory size can increase a lot when
using a lot of tabs at the same time, or after loading pages overloaded
with crappy scripts for advertisement display. All this modulates the
delay before firefox relaunch...
Sorry for my poor english wording. Not my native language.
