Firefox using huge amounts of RAM/crashing

I am on a Mac desktop running Ventura 13.7.3 and running Firefox 135 with extension of Ghostery, Privacy Badger, Google Don't Track Me, Facebook Container, FoxClocks and SoftGreenLeaves theme. All of these extensions have been playing nicely with each other for a long time.

Recently I've been having trouble recently with Firefox doing that thing of suddenly freezing/producing multiple windows and I need to refresh in order to get it working properly again. This has happened three times in the last five days - so frequently that I now keep the refresh instructions on my desktop. Today I heard the CPU grinding and clicked open my Activity Monitor to see four listings of 'FirefoxCP Isolated Web Content' running all of them using in excess of 2Gb. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get a screenshot of the Activity Monitor while this was going on as I had the Mac force quite Firefox and the moment I did, the activity stopped, but I've attached an example of the Activity Monitor showing still high CPU values for a few moments of browsing.

So what's up? How can I stop the CPU grab? How can I stop the frequent crashing?

There is a similar (but not identical) topic on Mozilla Connect , and I posted there. But I did not get a response. So I am re-posting on this new topic on Mozilla Support. I have a similar problem to what was discussed on Connect. I am using Firefox 133.0.3 on Windows 10 Professional. After Firefox has been running for a while, I get a message from Windows 10 that the free space on my C:drive is low. I did a directory listing on my C-drive before and after Exiting Firefox; I saw no large files disappearing. Then I decided to do "dir c:\ /ah" to see hidden files. What I saw was that pagefile.sys decreased in size from 29,925,748,736 to 16,270,770,176. This was a decrease of 13.7 Gb. Is this normal? I have lots of windows and tabs open in Firefox. Thanks.

Hi

Long-term Thunderbird user and in the past couple of months Thunderbird on my PC on connecting to my mail server goes to a time out (about a minute?) before then downloading new messages. Connecting from my laptop is instant.

The PC - which is relatively new - performs well otherwise.

Checked settings on both and they are identical, save for the laptop.being 64-bit and the PC 32-bit versions.

Any ideas for me to try?

Many thanks

Rick

If Mozilla is going to add an annoying left side scroll bar they should also include a facility to disable it. I don't use the right side scroll bar, I certainly don't need another not to use. Besides it interferes with some websites....

I followed the instructions to install flatpak and then firefox (from the Mozilla pages) and got to the end, but Firefox was not not the path. There was a shell script in/home/edg/.local/share/flatpak/app/org.mozilla.firefox/x86_64/stable/869b4e0279ab4475432b2930ae5d583b7a0e00bac1078b8848d163820a152fa5/files/bin/firefox but it led to /app/lib/firefox/firefox. The /app directory doesn't exist.

Not sure what is wrong.

I upgraded to Firefox 135.0 the other day and tried it out on a site I have used several times a week for at least 10 years. A .csv file that I regularly download failed to do so. The system simply failed to respond, and nothing appeared in the download window. The site offers the option of downloading the same data in a .xls file, and that worked. (My previous, obsolete, Firefox gave me the option of where to download to, and remembered the choice between vists. Such is progress!)
