Where can I find the new "performance" tab to limit the amount of memory FF can use?

I have seen this feature talked about in numerous articles last year. Where can I find it? Firefox REALLY needs this function, as does it need a "task manager" like Chrome has to help diagnose which extensions/websites/etc are hogging up too much RAM and/or CPU.

I found it. It's in Options>General and the Performance section is near the very bottom.
