I've been optimizing menu bar to save as much space as possible, and I am satified with what I got, with an exception of a singe fact - tabs are too small because the space is taken by adress bar. How do I increase tab length of decrease adress bar legth?

Note that the location bar has a flex attribute.

You can set the max-width of the location bar and the search bar to force a maximum width of these bars.

Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line. 

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#urlbar-container {max-width:400px!important}
#search-container {max-width:200px!important}

The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
