Why Does Firefox Sometimes Use More RAM When Multiple Tabs Are Open?
I've noticed that Firefox can sometimes consume a significant amount of RAM when I have multiple tabs open, especially when browsing websites with images, videos, and other media.
I would like to understand:
- Does Firefox handle memory differently compared to other browsers?
- Which built-in Firefox settings can help reduce memory usage?
- Does enabling or disabling hardware acceleration make a difference?
Is there a recommended way to identify which tabs or extensions are consuming the most memory?
I'd appreciate any practical tips or recommended settings to improve Firefox's performance without affecting the browsing experience.
