"How long does a Web page need to be unresponsive before it
should be considered to have crashed?
"For Mozilla Firefox developers last week, the answer to that
question had been ten seconds, but today, that's no longer the
case.
"The open source Firefox 3.6.4 browser released last week
includes a new out-of-process plugins feature that had been
intended to provide crash protection for users by shutting down
unresponsive processes and preventing them from crashing the entire
browser"
