Insane amount of data written to storage when Facebook is open (Profiles folder)

Hi Community,

I am writing as recently I noticed that extreme amount of data was written on my system SSD. Here we are talking about 100-200GB of data written daily. In resource monitor I found that Firefox is writing this amount of data in its Profiles folder, but only when Facebook's main page is open. I also noticed that when only the Messenger part is open the problem goes away. Currently I symlinked the Profiles folder onto one of my HDDs so the data is being written there, however I would like to know if anyone experienced the same issue and what could be the solution for this. I completely reinstalled Firefox, my installed extensions are Adblock Plus, Enhancer for youtube and Facebook Container.

Additionally - RAM should not be an issue here, there's 32GB of RAM in the computer
