Reducing memory usage in Firefox

A nice article, with a lot of references, that talks about the many things you can try to reduce the memory usage in Firefox. While I still think that Firefox is far and away the best browser, I do have to restart it every two weeks or so since it tends to use more and more memory as it runs. I'll definitely be trying the tips in this article to see if any of them help.
