"TWP - Translate Web Pages" Very dangerous extension!
"TWP - Translate Web Pages" Extension It should be considered very dangerous. I have been using this extension for many years and I have experienced endless RAM leaks because of this extension. If let's say I have 64 GB RAM or 96 GB RAM, the extension will use all the resources of the computer in a few seconds all RAM + all page file memory + all RTX 4060 8 GB memory. Such behavior is similar to some malicious applications, which ends with a System crash "Unknown Hard Error" Extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/traduzir-paginas-web/

Then you need to contact the Addon developer and tell them of their Addon issues. And provide them the crash error if there is one so they will look into the issue and address the problem.
How can I report a bug? If the System crashes, it can never register anything due to complete "Out Of Memory! I previously told the developer about this problem, but I was simply ignored.
They should have if they are on Firefox Addon page a link to their site to contact them. Did you look there as well. Even if the crash didn't register it's up to the user to report the issue to the Addon developer. And as you stated they ignored your question so that is out of the hands of Firefox since this is their issue not a Firefox issue.

I've been using this extension for many years without noticing a memory problem. I do not have it set to translate sites or languages automatically, except for one particular site that I only use for specific research and do not leave open when I don't need it. Maybe yours is set to do more stuff automatically?
By the way, are you finding the built-in Firefox Translation feature useful as an alternative? I don't think it is up to the level of Google, yet, but maybe it's good enough? More info in this article: Firefox Translation.
