browser troubles

kengrI found an interesting tmblr the other day and I'm slowly working my way thru the back posts. Lots of "interesting" images.
One link I followed from it took me to another tumblr. This one showed up as nothing but image after image. Almost all NSFW.
So I had it open in another tab and was merrily saving images. Then Firefox crashed once I was *ay* done the page. I restarted, and due to the way that sort of tumbler page loads, it took an hour or more to get that far down the page again (we are talking hundreds, maybe thousands of inages).
I got to whee I'd been before (reloading the page puts you back at the toip *heavy sigh*)and Firefox crashed again. I can take a hint.
I tried the page in Chrome. Took the usual forever to get that far down. And Chrome crashed. Ditto for Opera.
So far Safari hasn't crashed. but a simple "click" of the scroll wheel (ie minimum rotation) takes 10-20 seconds to do anything. And right clicking to save doesn't have a menu come uop until I twitch the scroll wheel one more click. But at least I *can* still progress thru the images.
Not sure how I'd go about filing a bug report on this for any of the browsers, given that while the bug is *quite* reproducible, the page is intensely NSFW.
Oh yeah, if I accidentally click on an image on the page, I get just that image. And no (apparent) way back to the full page. Escape doesn't seem to work, and the back button takes me back to the page that was open before I went to the Monstrous Page opf Images. Whoich means it takes forever to get back to where I was. By now, that's *hours* of slowly creeping down it and waiting for another section to load.
Though part of that is me switching back to Firfox to keep browsing and reading my usual sites.
I'm amazed that pages like this are possible. And moderately annoyed.
