I've been using it extensively, and also set it up for a colleague who had similar requirements as you - running many tabs and she wanted it to run throughout the day without crashing (which firefox would with her load). She's been happy with that aspect. <br>
<br>One issue is that some webpages still explicitly look for Internet explorer or at least Firefox for certain functions. ADP payroll for example. You could use a user agent switcher if inclined.<br>I second Topher's displeasure with the extensions, they're still maturing. I'd wait another month before venturing there.<br>

</div></div>I use phpMyAdmin a LOT, and typically keep it open in a different browser<br>
altogether, so that if either that one or Firefox dies, I don't lose both.<br>
<br>
For years I used Galeon as my secondary, but it's finally starting to fail<br>
as firefox and gecko get newer versions, since galeon isn't maintined<br>
anymore.<br>
<br>
I switched to Chrome as my secondary when they released a big new version<br>
recently, a month ago maybe? I don't remember. Arch has it in the repo<br>
so I ran it.<br>
<br>
It works very well for the stuff I use it for. I also use it for google<br>
reader. I block all of google's cookies in Firefox, but that doesn't work<br>
with reader, so I read in that other one.<br>
<br>
I wish there was less platform dependency in the extensions. I saw lots<br>
that I'd like to use that said "Windows only" or "OS X only". And even<br>
the ones that said they worked in Linux failed for me.<br>
<br>
Thus ends my report.<br>
