400??  You are truly one sick puppy.  :-)

Seriously, what is the use for so many tabs?   Is it just a matter of  
poor housekeeping on the part of the browser/user combo in not closing  
tabs auto-generated by following links?   I would think it would be a  
fair idea to have some upper limit and a LRU cache.
