Firefox 60.x in few seconds eats all memory till computer freeze
Not sure if it came with an update but started ~1hour ago. After launching firefox it starts to eat memory till computer completely freezes. 1 tab, homepage - google. Somewhat 6+ gigs under 20seconds. Have 8gigs, even turned off everything what was running for sake of science - firefox did everything up to 100% like a boss.
Tried safe mode: did not help Tried about:memory - minimize, no effect, could not complete measure till system freeze. Downgraded to 58.x - problem gone.
Did not change anything nor visited irregular sites. 1 extension: ad-block, using same theme since forever
Sorry cannot provide any more info, simply had no time...

Hi, Please : go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check (put a tick in the box) the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser.
Go to the 3 Bar Menu then Options --> General --> Performance and untick everything. change the recommended size lower then see how it runs. Note: 1 = No Multiprocessor = slow again. Try 2 Restart Firefox after making these changes please. Note : Hardware Acceleration is for Video Card, Monitor to see if remain off or to turn back on.
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
