Safari has been locking up way too often lately. If I try to load too much at once it will freeze and I have to force quit.

Has anyone else had this issue at all?
 
I have safari running on 5 Macs. No freezes or force-quits.

Can you give us an idea of your Mac's hardware specs? Does it happen when looking at specific websites?
 
Safari has been quitting unexpectedly a lot on my eMac 1.25 OS X Tiger lately. I've also had some "freezes" - or never ending turning beach ball - if I try to load too much at once.
I've installed all software updates, but I can't remember if the problem did occur after one of these....
 
I accidentally loaded all my bookmarks this morning, I don't have tons (say 100), but it didn't crash.

I experience crashes on flash game sites usually. I attribute that to flash though, not Safari.
 
Coming back to this, since updating to 10.5.2 some flash content crashes Safari, and other stuff doesn't, but for the most part my browser stops responding.

I've had to force quit Safari 10+ times today, something in that update serious screwed it all up.

And yes, I've repaired disk permissions.
