I use FirePHP for testing my development and sometimes I do not need it for a few hours and have FireBug closed (but not disabled).

Then, the next time I open FireBug I have to wait quite some time while all the cached log entries scroll down and down and down...

I'd like to see an XPI option to limit the cache to, say, the last X requests to avoid this.

Obviously, this is not a defect but an enhancement. I couldn't see where to change the type, so my apologies in advance...

Some of this behavior is due to my compatibility code with older versions of firebug. I'll be removing this for FirePHP 1.0. I can then see if I can hook into the same cache logic that firebug uses or if I need to implement my own.

Thanks for logging this issue which is a known but undocumented defect to me.
