Is it normal for Firefox to be taking ~2800 MB of Memory?

Looking at the Task Manager in Windows, Firefox is using 2700-3000 MB of Memory when running. I only have 13 tabs at the time of writing this but it is driving my memory up to 50%. (I have 32GB RAM). Is this normal? When I open the Firefox manager, the GPU seems to take like 1-2 GB and i think it is driving up the Memory. I also have UBlock Origin, Privacy Badger and a third extension called Copy Plain Text. This is just concerning me and would like to know if I'm overreacting.

Has there been a change to the way that crashhelper.exe behaves in recent releases of Firefox?

If I disable all my browser extensions in the current Firefox v154.0.0 (rel. 18-Aug-2026) and restart my Win 10 ESU laptop then the first time I launch Firefox with a single tab open (i.e, my Firefox Home page with search and 4 rows of shortcuts) I typically see ~ 6 instances of firefox.exe in Task Manager that all disappear as expected when Firefox is closed.

However, if I immediately re-open Firefox I typically see ~ 11 instances of firefox.exe plus an additional process called crashhelper.exe (located in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox) load into memory. On occasion the crashreporter.exe process will also briefly appear in Task Manager and then quickly disappear. All these extra Firefox processes unload from memory as expected when I close Firefox, and if I go to about:crashes or (Help | More Troubleshooting Information | Crash Reports for the Last 3 Days | All Crash Reports) it shows "No crash reports have been submitted" in the past 3 days, so my Firefox browser appears to be working correctly even if crashhelper.exe and crashreporter.exe start running in the background.

NOTE: I can reproduce this behaviour if I prevent Malwarebytes Premium from launching at boot-up (i.e., if Settings | General | Windows Startup | Launch Malwarebytes in the Background When Windows is Started is OFF) and restart my computer, so I don't believe that the appearance of crashhelper.exe (or crashreporter.exe) has anything to do with my Malwarebytes real-time protection.

Wäre es nicht Sinn voller mal Firefox so zu Optimieren das er nicht gleich 50% des Arbeitsspeicher belegt. Ich beobachte schon länger das wenn Firefox eine weile Läuft sehr viel Ram braucht. Da gibts andere Browser wie Brave die viel weniger Ram belegen als Firefox.

Könnt ihr da nicht mal ansetzten und was Optimieren Bei den Ram Preisen Aktuell kauft man sich ja kein neuen RAM.

Immediately after restart and subsequently starting Firefox 153.0.3 my Windows 11, 16GB system shows that Firefox has started 11 processes, five of which account for most of the 1.2GB of RAM used. Why does Firefox run so many processes, and how can I make it use less RAM?

As your avid user for long time, I am considering to switch in spite of familiarity. Do better for you current and potential new user as I am very much unlike to recommend you and use anymore.

We have an asp.net Blazor SPA (server side Blazor) that dynamically generates components within the page. Over time, there is a very large RAM leak under document-shared that climbs until the windows are closed.

We have tried various firefox configurations to try and either disable this shared storage as well as limit but with no luck. THe memory allocation is in GB of RAM space and cannot be limited or reduced until the window itself is closed/restarted.

Research online indicates this can happen due to colocated stylesheets and how firefox wants to cache styles aggressively. Adjustments to move stylesheets does not appear to help.

What configurations can I use to help prevent/reduce this high RAM usage? This does not occur in Chrome or Edge, I cannot replicate this well under FireFox for Windows.

The glitchiest update ever

My Firefox is set to auto-update and did so Wednesday night, so it's currently 152.0.1 (64-bit). Since then, it’s been virtually unusable on my home computer (a 2017 iMac Intel Core i5 running Ventura 13.7.8).

I’ve changed nothing about the way I browse, yet having multiple tabs open at a time makes the application either non-responsive and I have to force quit or makes it crash (from today: bp-3c95c176-fde2-40e4-a61c-c5c080260619 bp-7ebe2fc9-0be2-4db2-b0e3-675df0260619 bp-bfe86698-eaf0-4cd2-96c3-ed20b0260619

It crashed four times yesterday as well, but I inadvertently submitted ALL previously un-submitted crashes, so I'd have to dig through to find ones from June 18th).

I can't get most websites to load. I cleared all my browsing data this afternoon in the hopes that it would help, but now I'm having trouble logging into sites like Facebook, Instagram, etc.

Videos on any platform will not load, let alone play. Instagram, YouTube, Peacock (which I think was having an outage last night), Twitter, BlueSky, etc. YouTube BRIEFLY loaded and played a video last night but there was no audio. I tried searching a word’s pronunciation in Google, no audio. It will not play audio on any music sites (SoundCloud and Bandcamp; they both show that the music is playing, but the indicator bars do not move on either site, and again, no audio).

I believe this is an update issue because work computer (MacBook Air, 2017 running Monterey 12.7.6) is using Firefox 151.0.1 and everything is working as normal there (fortunately I leave Firefox open all the time on that computer so it hasn't auto-updated). It had also been running fine BEFORE the update.

Any ideas on a fix?
