It depends on which ones your using. Some can make firefox bog down and even crash.

Personally I would say that generally they don't, though there are some that can cause slowdown as rridgely says. BTW I have 24 and have no problems (I have tried slimming them down but they're just too damn useful :rolleyes:

)
