Hi guys - I am running Firefox 157.0 (aarch64) on a Macmini M2 pro with 32GB RAM .

I am regularly receiving messages that my default browser, Firefox, is the largest consumer of that RAM. This is what I received this morning shortly before my system shut itself down. I did have many files open but noticed that Firefox is consuming 33GB of my RAM. Is this normal?

Overtime android seems to balloon in storage size.

I tried deleting history and data inside the app, it lowered slightly then shot back up.

I does not always go up, seems i can go days or weeks wothout a noticeable increase, my guess it is happens whenever android is managing stored memory on apps, i recently restarted and it grew again.

I have tried remote debugging over usb on a mac and could not find anything taking up any amount of data that would account for this.

I dont really know what to do, i would like to avoid uninstalling the app and manually readding pw thing or gaving to save them to firefoxs cloud save. Eventually i will have to as phone storage is getting very low.

I mostly just watch YT on a regular tab, and browse the web in private tabs. I have ublock , no script, video backgroundplay fix as enabled addons, if any of that helps. None of them had a big memory footprint in remote debug.

I started noticing that Firefox was giving me a lot of "not responding" freezes the past couple of weeks. The past couple of days I basically cannot access Firefox at all - constant, immediate freezing. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling (multiple times), disabling hardware acceleration, running troubleshooter mode (still freezes! if it opens at all!), deleting profiles, restarting my computer, etc. I've done just about everything I can find online about this issue. Nothing has worked. I have no issues with Chrome or Edge.

Any suggestions??

Original FF user here so not a newbie. Run all FF updates on a regular basis. Currently on a MacBk Air circa 2020 running Sonoma 14.7.7 I browse twitter on a regular basis. I run various ad blockers: ABP, Adblocker Ultimate & Privacy Badger. Last month or so I've needed to make some adjustments as maybe the X platform has instituted workarounds or something but suddenly I was seeing ads that looked like someone's post, very deceptive. At one point it was necessary to disable Privacy Badger on twitter/X as there was an interference w what I was seeing. That wasn't that long ago, maybe 2-3 wks? Consequently if I saw an ad I needed to do a "block element" thru Adblocker Ultimate & while it was a bit of a bother that was all fine and good no problem. Again, this was all recent. Tonite was different. An ad appeared and somewhere something got entangled and I had to disable the Adblocker Ultimate. I sent them an email to see what's up. Then I had to disable that on twitter so ads appeared. Next I tried to enable ABP again on twitter to see if maybe since I'd disabled it a couple of wks prior maybe it had been updated and would work ok. This is when things really started to go downhill. It worked but too well - was disabling images from news reports and/or someone's posted video. THEN I noticed my cpu was running a bit loud. I tried to disable/test the ad blockers but my cpu was getting louder so I shut down the twitter website altogether.

That didn't help. I checked the Utility monitor and saw my activity monitor climbing as I heard the fan running louder. SO bizarre! I shut down FF altogether and this calmed down the CPU. Next I opened just a general news site - Al Jazeera - to see what would happen. Within about 2-3 mins the CPU started speeding up again. I closed AlJazeera, and just sat there for a few moments and my cpu calmed down. Opened it again same thing. Began speeding up. That's when I came here to file a report//ask qs because this just doesn't ever happen - literally ever. It is not unusual for me to have both a browser page open w 2-3 windows along w a private window open - maybe mltiple windows there - and NO cpu noise going on. Once more I shut down FF completely before reopening a new window. IF I start browsing a news site - like Al Jazeera, it begins running hot again. Twitter, same thing and now my ad blockers seem to be messed up//not working as well. Right now as I type this I have ABP & AdBlocker Ultimate both highlighted as active; Privacy Badger is showing enabled but no activity, Twitter Video Downloader is just sitting there as is typical unless I need it (it's to download videos off of Twitter, works very well too.) That's all I have for add-ons. Right now in just this window everything is calm and quiet. IF I open a news site tho, or social media, anything w a bit of activity on it everything starts humming louder and louder. I just opened FB for a few moments to see if that creates issues and yes it does w/i maybe 2-3 mins of activity. Also: FF Privacy & Security Settings are on Standard. Not sure what else I can provide but please feel free to ask. I may have left something out. I'm hearing the cpu heat up again so getting ready to just shut things down for the night. Thanks to all who helped build FF - really - and thanks to whoever can help resolve whatever's going on now.

My system froze abruptly while I was browsing on Firefox. Cursor was useless. What should I do if/when that happens again? And how can I prevent the freeze from happening?

I keep having problems with Firefox hanging or disconnecting. I have followed all the steps in the [Hanging] page, and I still have to shut it down and restart it often, sometimes as much as several times a day. I also frequently have to force quit the browser, or I get a message saying "Firefox is open, but not responding" when I try to restart it.

Windows 11 desktop - latest version with previews.

Within the last week or so, my mouse has started moving very slowly within Firefox. I've tried refreshing and reinstalling Firefox (which is up to date) and deactivating all extensions. However, this makes no difference.

If this can't be fixed, I will seriously consider using another browser as my default in Windows (long time Firefox user).

My Dell Precision Laptop from 2019 runs a frequently updated Ubuntu 24.04. About one or two weeks ago, after one of the latest Firefox updates, i noticed that video streaming produces rectangular flickering in rapid sweeps. ( Also fast scrolling large text websites produces similar flickering, I think I would have noticed it before...) . If you detected it once, you see it always again... :-( First I fiddled around with the nvidia settings because the driver was also recently updated, without much success. Playing locally stored videos, e.g. with VLC media player, still works fine, so the nvidia driver is not the problem i think. Yesterday I installed Chromium and the video performance is fine! As good as with firefox some weeks ago! So it must be one of the latest updates, that causes the problem. Generally I like firefox more than chromium. I like the control you have, e.g. via Add ons.. So I hope that the firefox performance will increase again... Thank you for firefox! Florian Mengedoht

Mine can be perfectly fine after a fresh restart, then after a few days with a bunch of tabs open it starts getting sluggish.

Closing a bunch of tabs helps, but I’m wondering if there’s something else going on. Curious what other people have experienced.

Hi.

My laptop keeps freezing and I suspect Firefox is the reason. It's rather new, I have had it for about a month and half.

I initially thought it was a Windows update issue and updated it but after some experiments I noticed it only freezes when Firefox is open. It doesn't freeze when another browser is used or when am playing video games.

I am currently on Ubuntu and it still happens. It's really annoying and because of this I am still keeping my old laptop. Yesterday for example it happened at least thrice.

when i use firefox browser it is lagging too much even if its youtube,chatgpt or a react web app i try to run locally it is lagging very very much when i use other browser there is no issues i really liked firefox and dont prefer to switch, what should i do

This computer works fine with Firefox, but on my other one it opens to Sorry, we're having trouble getting your pages back. I don't want them back. But Ok, I'll go along with you. Try Start New Session: just buffers. View Previous Tabs? Can't remove the checks. Just buffers. I end up either shutting it down myself through Task Manger (no other way works) or waiting for the popup that Firefox isn't working, what do I want to do? I can't close it with the X. Restarting and shutting down then turning on the computer again didn't do any good.

I had this problem a few months ago, but not as severe. Hard booting worked, and as long as I specifically exited Firefox at the end, with the drop down menu, I could use Firefox. Now I can't use it on my other computer, which is where I prefer to work. I have to use something worse.

When I use Firefox, everything feels slow. Videos pause and stutter often. Pages take a long time to load. I have cleared cache and restarted the phone but it is still happening. Please help me fix this so it works properly again."

I have tap sounds turned on in Android. Usually, in Firefox, I get a single sound per tap as expected. However, some UI elements cause a double tap to sound, but otherwise function normally:

• Any element of the home bar (e.g. new tab button, tab list, triple dots)
• In the tab list, closing a tab via the X button

This is strange behavior to me.
