@jake: Try this link, maybe it'll work? I just almost made Firefox crash doing this. https://www.google.com/maps?t=m&ll=40.07304,-74.724323&z=8&output=classic&dg=opt

I use maps.google.es, still with the old maps. Until they force me to use the new maps.

"crashes for 40% of users" is really, really not the experience Google should be promoting.
Zeffy:
No problem. I'm not sure what the new Google Maps' problem is, but here's a fun fact: Memory usage of Firefox with Google Maps open and NO OTHER TABS:
604 MB!!!! THAT'S A SINGLE TAB!
Mine doesn't crash started crashing cause why the fuck not, but here's what usually ends up happening:
* It's always slow (always)
* City and town names disappear. Route shields disappear. All I fucking see is lines. And no matter what I do, until I refresh the page and rape my memory more, it won't fix itself.
* I get frustrated in Street View because it's so clunky
* FIREFOX HAS STOPPED RESPONDING
