Has anyone else noticed that the memory leak issues have gotten way worse since last update?

I work on a potato. Most of the memory is in the windows paging file, on a mechanical hard drive. So freeing up used memory takes longer than it would on a machine with a metric tonne of quad-channel RAM. The past 6 months, Firefox has started having memory leak issues, where it just uses more & more memory until the paging file hits its hard limit and windows kills firefox.

But since last update (135.0 x64), the memory leak issue has worsened significantly.

If I open firefox, and then tab between all current tabs, I get maybe 5 GB of memory usage. So even if all tabs are marked as "active" and loaded into memory, this still isn't enough to cause issues.

But after 30 minutes, that memory usage has ballooned up to >20 GB, at which point windows decides that it needs to free up memory, and kills the process. Which is annoying, because then the browser reverts to the last saved state, meaning many tabs can be lost or reset to several clicks back.

I've tried shaving off extensions, with zero change. I've tried increasing paging file size, but that's just kicking the bucket down the road.

Anyone have a solution to this?

Firefox web browser when utilizing its online advertising is attempting to install malware(addons.browse-privately.net [URL:Malvertising]). [P.S. My antivirus is up-to-date!] My Avast Security software catches and stops it. In addition, whenever I start Firefox the session which was saved from previous use opens along with an additional instance briefly. ???

I have a user who is experiencing various tabs crashing in Firefox. So far, I've confirmed she isn't using any extensions, has only 30-40 tabs open at any given time across 2-3 windows, and is usually using about 80-85% of the physical memory at any given time.

I've reinstalled Firefox, updated the graphics driver, and Windows is fully up to date. I've just created a new profile to see if that resolves the issue.

The crash files all list "EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT" and "out of memory" as the sanitized reason. I suspect that the problem is as simple as it sounds, but I'd like to get another set of eyes on these crash dumps that may be able to see things that I don't, or don't even know to look for.

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but they all also show that the total virtual memory is 140 TB? Could it be trying to address memory that doesn't exist?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, when I'm on a web site and choose to contact them, I click on their email. Instead of opening Thunderbird opening I get the annoying pop up that wants me to sign in and open the new Outlook. I do not use Outlook. I do not want to use Outlook. What do I need to do to simply have my Thunderbird open and completely ignore the Outlook? Thank you,

Hello

I have always been using mozilla firefox as my day to day browser. However, After recent upgrade of my device to Pixel 9 pro XL I am considering switching to Chrome as I experience inconsistent scrolling and stuttering. It appears as whole scrolling down the page the refresh rate drops to zero for fraction of a second. I do not experience this issue on Chrome. I tried using Firefox without extensions too, but it does not help. Changed several settings in about:config, and it did not help to improve. I am on a clean install now and ready to try any proposed solutions which might help. Thanks in advance,

Martin

Hi,

I've noticed that Firefox is no longer performing all the functions of some website. For example, when I use the Kaiser payment website, everything works until I enter my payment info. When I use the CA DMV app, it stops working after I enter the my username, password, and security code. In all cases, the website returns to the Login or Enter-Data screen. There are no error codes, just an endless loop of attempts to login or pay.

Firefox used to work on all of these websites. This error started happening on the prior-to-last update - currently on 135.0. It started happening before I updated my MacBook Pro to Sequoia 15.3. Still, the same thing happens on my Windows 10 HP laptop at work.

I am able to get full functionality on these websites when I use the Chrome browser. But, I like Firefox's functionality and security better! :-(

My firefox is using up too much memory, up to 60% of my laptops memory, even when I am not using youtube. and I can't figure out what is causing it to use so much. I've used minimize memory to no effect, can you figure out what is causing it? This link has a memory report to help

Regardless of what I do, I cannot get my Roboform EXT to work on Firefox! Can you please check to see what is preventing my App from appearing when I need to log into a site? Thanks!

Firefox User here since Netscape Navigator. Problem occurred with latest Firefox release as far as I can tell. This rig works flawlessly with everything but Firefox and Thunderbird Chrome and Edge have no problems. All my apps operate normally. Almost all aspects of the browser/ display window are corrupt. Chrome and Edge and all apps function without issue. Included are two screen shots In attempts to resolve this issue I have uninstalled the video driver several times, including the use of DDU. I have done a deep uninstall of Firefox, including cleaning the registry and all hidden files. I have tried the latest video driver and several earlier versions; all exhibit the same issue. I can't use Firefox and its driving me nuts. I'd like to understand why Thank you for any advice and hints in advance

Pornhub is able to remember video viewing choices on private tab without even logging on their site. After closing private tab later when visited their site it shows home feed recommendation based on previous video surfing. It is very shocking and at the same concerning because it is able to bypass private surfing. This issue is persistent on both mobile and pc devices. Please look into it as it questions effectiveness of private browser like mozilla firefox.

I always watched movies/shows through mozila browser. Lately some titles are playing back like stuttering, choppy, like skipping frames. This happens on Netflix only, in titles like for instance "The Blacklist" and "The Juror". In Chrome they work fine. It's just on Firefox. Something happen with Firefox in one of its late updates.

a few months ago firefox started rendering images funky. I am not sure what changed, it seems to be a setting problem as other computers with FF 135 don't seem to do this. I have not been able to come up with the right search terms to describe the problem. here is a screen shot of the issue.

This started about a year ago. Whenever I click on an MSN article, the screen jumps about half a screen away and I need to scroll to get back to the headline and click again. This does not happen on any other website. It does not happen when I use MS Edge browser.
