Firefox eats my CPU like I eat ribs

Kinda.  It's the Gecko rendering engine with an Aqua interface.  It
doesn't have any of the XUL interface bits.

Odd.  The only time I have had problems with Camino over the last few years
is when Apple shipped a somewhat buggy version of Flash.  It caused Flash 
intensive sites to lock up the browser, but it also affected Safari and
Firefox, so it wasn't a Camino-specific issue.

What's the Bugzilla ID for your problem?
