My system recently slowed considerably. When I checked what was happening, I found there were up to 14 Firefox 'windows' showing in my Task Manager, and collectively these 'windows' were consuming over 25% of the computer memory (650+MB) even with Firefox just opened as the initial browser screen; no addresses etc had yet to be added. I've followed many of the troubleshooting suggestions, but to no avail. I have not reset the browser as yet as I need to understand the root of the problem

Thanks in advance for your assistance Duncan Hodder

Oh, I also meant to mention that there were no other programs running on my monitor at the time

It's normal for there to be many processes with different jobs. You can get more details by visiting about:processes in the address bar (Shift+Esc).

You can reduce the number of processes per site (default four) by changing dom.ipc.processCount.webIsolated to 1 in about:config then restarting the browser.
