Ok... Not really the same argument--but I still hold that this is an edge case. I can't even wrap my head around the UI FUBAR of what a window with 100 tabs open looks like. Someone please explain to me how you work within that system?
I have my tabs all down the left side of my window, so they stack nicely. I use a compact theme and a large monitor so I can get 30-50 tabs per window. And I have multiple browser windows (about three) open for different tasks. I've got one for general browsing, and one for each concurrent project.
Well I can't explain for anyone else and I'm sure I haven't reached such extremes but currently I personally have about 50+ tabs open in 7 browser windows (6 firefox and 1 chromium) spread accross 5 virtual desktops. I won't say what they are except they are clusters of tabs on research topics, things related to work I just did, procastination aids like HN. Some tabs haven't been touched in a couple days so it's not as bad as it seems. Some people bookmark-all-open-tabs and read later, I leave them open because otherwise things just get forgotten. Hope that helps.
EDIT: I should maybe point out that I haven't any stability issues here though Firefox from time to time decides that it needs to become laggy(not Flash related).
