I gave this a quick check, Firefox's was last changed in 2008:
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/d57879bc8021
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=423377

A quick read through of the bug showed that other browsers were 
increasing their limits at around the same time. That means that the 
changes should have propagated to nearly all users by now.

Whether the new limits are sufficiently high for OSM I haven't 
investigated enough to answer.
