Firefox is not doing much at all. Yet, more than 40% CPU is draining my battery.

Hi

Whilst regular web browsing may surface Fiefox for Android as being a cause of battery usage, please appreciate that you are using an Android 4 device.

Chances are that the device is about five to six years old and the battery may not hold its charge as well as a newer device might.
