Hi guys, I have a pretty serious problem with Firefox for Windows. Since I bought my new laptop in June of this year (on which 16GB of RAM and Windows 11 are installed) it is impossible for me to use Firefox because on heavy sites (especially Twitch, which I use for several hours) the browser starts to consume a disproportionate amount of RAM that gradually increases until it fills all 16GB. I tried disabling the hardware acceleration and the only result I got was that the load simply goes to the CPU and the fans start like those of a rocket. This problem didn't happen to me on the old PC (8GB of RAM, Windows 10) and, on the new one, it doesn't happen if I use other browsers like Edge... Any suggestions? (Obviously discarding the option to switch browsers). In all browsers as the only extension I have uBlock Origin

no, uso Windows Defender...purtroppo, ho già letto l'articolo che si trova a quel link ma senza andare da nessuna parte. Aprendo il sito di Twitch in "Modalità risoluzione dei problemi", la quantita di RAM occupata di partenza è inferiore di 200MB, ma poi la questione dell'aumento si ripete andando però a infilggere la CPU
