Me three.  I'm having this problem with Konqueror and Firefox both on my 
wife's machine.  Bad Java gobbles up a 2 GHz P4 with 512 MB of RAM.

Now that I think about it, I've played with the same Java stuff on this box, 
and haven't seen the symptom here.  I have 1024 MB of RAM, and suspect this 
is the difference.  It's probably a slow memory leak, and I have a bigger 
bucket.
