Would be nice to LOAD tabs from last time, not only show them. Just a suggestion.
Having used Chrome in the past, I found it helpful to have the tabs from last time loaded, not only displayed. In Firefox the tabs are only displayed, and there is no option for having them automatically loaded. This is not a question (unless there's something I don't know which would allow me to do this), but a suggestion for some improvement going forward.

The "Don't load tabs until selected" setting was removed in Firefox 47+ to prevent performance issues with restoring all tabs automatically especially in case multi-process tabs is enabled.
You can modify the related prefs on the about:config page in current releases if you are willing to accept possible performance issues.
- browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand (true)
- browser.sessionstore.restore_pinned_tabs_on_demand (false)

You can set that up from here;
Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address bar.
There are two settings;
- When Firefox Starts
When the browser is started, what do you want to display? Many of us choose Show My Home Page.
- Home Page
When a new page is opened, what do you want to be displayed?
- Use Current Page. Use what ever page(s) are open at that time.
- Use Bookmark
- Restore To Default. about:home shows a Mozilla home page with tools.
You can use any of these that you wish;
about:home (Firefox default home page), about:newtab (shows the sites most visited), about:blank (a blank page),
or you can enter any webpage or about: page you want.
Thank you for the reply, FredMcD, but I am aware of these settings. My suggestion is in regards to the 'Show my windows and tabs from last time' option. When this option is selected, and I start Firefox, the tabs which were opened the last time I used Firefox are there, but the pages do not automatically load; they only load once I click on each of the individual tabs.
Ahh. That is to prevent a 'bottleneck' of data.

In addition to the built-in all-at-once setting cor-el mentioned, there might be add-ons that load background tabs at a more leisurely pace in case you want to use the browser immediately rather than sitting around waiting for them to finish.
Thank you cor-el! That's exactly what I was looking for and it works perfectly.
