While watching twitch.tv live streams using HTML5 the amount of RAM that FireFox uses constantly increases overtime. When the browser is close after watching a stream on Twitch the amount of RAM that is still no longer being used doesn't decrease.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-slow-how-make-it-faster https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-many-cpu-resources-how-fix https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-ram https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-hangs-or-not-responding https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-takes-long-time-start-up

Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately, running FireFox in safe mode and watching a stream on twitch it constantly lags and spikes CPU usage when in safe mode.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
