Wow. Is there any way to mitigate that?

The only true fix is to remove it, although changing the ruleset and finding out which tab has humongous numbers of iframes is probably a good start: according to link 1 ABP has a static memory consumption of ~60MiB, plus 3~6MiB/iframe (since it's caused by the stylesheet size, I expect the precise ruleset impacts that)

  Don't use AdBlock, use the HOSTS file: http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm
