Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
I have installed Ubuntu via Wubi ( NTFS is hosting filesystem ) , default installation. Later , have KDE installed too.
Have over 1000 Mb RAM and I found active swap of 200 Mb.
Firefox was loading probably too large page ( GNOME's bugzilla search ).
I noticed , that firefox is consuming all available memory , and entire system is "frozen".
I was logged on the system via SSH , but that session also stops responding ( but it was not disconnected ).
I suspect , that some default values affecting "no free memory" status was set wrong ( may be serious problem of Wubi ) in default installation of Ubuntu.
Bug #625367 may be similar to mine.
I will try to reproduce the error , if needed ( my system will freeze , I think ).

m,
We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Presumably this problem was a one time occurrence and/or is no longer an issue? Can this bug report now be closed?
If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time.
Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
