How long is one of your typical sessions? How long do you wait after closing to start again?
if you close down Firefox but then decide to restart it for whatever reason, openSUSE/KDE/whatever gives you the error message, "Firefox is already running. ..." and won't let you start Firefox until you "close" the already "running" Firefox.
Just an idea:
Look in your profile dir for the largest files. Likely one of *.sqlite is obscenely large. If so, try going into prefs -> security and uncheck the two "block..." boxes, then close, then see if startup works as expected. If it does, but you wish to keep those security settings on, try going to one of the Mozilla web sites and find out how to "compact" those .sqlite files. Then turn the two prefs on again and see how shutdown and startup work.
Thanks for this. There is one 'obscenely' large sqlite file. While I haven't yet tried your approach, doing the VACUUM thingie hasn't done a thing to that largely 'obscene' file. I'll try what you suggest at the first opportunity (and if the most recent upgrades to FF and TB haven't fixed the problem).
