sleeping tabs

Recently, tabs have started going to "sleep" after being inactive for a few minutes. I can't find the setting to prevent this.

Hi I'm wondering what people think about emails providing links for donations. If the email address is spoofed and the link is malicious were in trouble. So, assuming the email I received today was from Mozilla (and not a spoofed email address, shouldn't Mozilla ask us to visit it's webpage to make a donation rather than email us a link? Regards

Maybe it is my spiritual guides because i obsses and have OCD and have too many tabs. But i started having tabs get deleted and i have no tabs on re-launch, tried to check, re-check this. I Am not sure if to reinstall because i don't want to lose passwords or setting/history (i don't remember now it should be saved) but usually reinstalling doesn't solve anything for me anyways...

I didn't install any new extensions when it started happening!

It doesn't happen every time so it is hard to troubleshoot, i cannot use browser with safe mode. I might test it couple times.

How to debug memory problems with extensions?

I'm having huge memory problems with Firefox. In about:performance I can see that the extensions process takes up way too much memory. When I start Firefox it usually shows a memory usage of around 180MB. However, at some point the memory usage of the extensions process starts to increase and it doesn't stop increasing until my RAM is full and then it increases even further. It increases until I restart Firefox or until it uses so much RAM that my computer runs incredibly slow.

Below you can see a screenshot of the Task Manager showing how much RAM is available on my computer and a screenshot of the about:performance page showing the memory usage of the Extensions process. The RAM available on my laptop is 10GB (the default configuration was 4GB of soldered RAM plus 4GB of exchangeable RAM. I have upgraded from 4+4GB to 4+8GB but 2GB of the soldered RAM on this laptop are used as GPU memory so the remaining RAM is 10GB). The about:performance screenshot shows a memory usage of 13GB for the extensions process which is possible because Windows automatically pages RAM on the SSD when I'm running low on available physical memory. This enables programs to actually use more memory than the available physical RAM but of course programs become incredibly slow when the RAM is full and huge parts of memory have to be paged on the SSD.

My actual question: How can I find the cause of these memory problems?

What I've tried so far

- I have created a memory report on about:memory. The result is at the bottom of this post. - I have watched the about:performance page and tried to find out what action triggers the memory usage of the extensions process to increase. At the start of the browsing session the memory usage is only at around 180MB. It stays like that for a while. At some point it starts to steadily increase by many GBs. But I couldn't find the cause. I don't know what triggers the extensions process to increase memory usage. - I could simply disable extensions and see if the problem gets solved. But I want to know which exact extension causes this problem. It is very difficult to find out which one it is because I have many extensions and I don't know what causes the memory usage to increase. So I would have to disable extensions one by one and wait for an indefinite amount of time and check whether memory usage stays low. But I don't know how long I have to wait until the memory usage would increase because I couldn't identify what triggers it to increase.

Rather than just using trial and error I would like to find a way to use debugging tools to exactly determine what causes the problem.

_______________________

This (https://pastebin.com/U3QXTAt9) is the memory report from about:memory. This contains the whole extension (pid 18332) section (copy & pasted by selecting the text on the about:memory page). I have left out the rest because I don't know if it contains private data. Please note: this is not taken from the same browsing session as the screenshot that shows a memory usage of 13GB. Why? Because programs run very slow when memory is low and large parts of memory are being paged. The debug tools usually require a lot of RAM and CPU performance so it's very difficult to use the debug tools when the memory is already full and programs are already running slow. This memory report shows a very high memory usage of the extensions process. In this case it's "only" 3.5GB but it was taken in an early stage of the increasing memory usage. As shown in the screenshot below, memory usage can go even higher than the available physical RAM on my computer. The memory report doesn't clearly show which extension is responsible for the high memory usage. In the memory report, I can only see a high memory usage for the items gc-buffers and gc-heap which leads me to think that the memory problem has something to do with the garbage collector. However, I cannot see which extension is responsible for this. No item in this list with a description that identifies a specific extension has a high memory usage. This is only an excerpt from the memory report (only the extension section). I went through the whole memory report with Ctrl + F "moz-extension" and looked for items with a high memory usage but I didn't find a single item with high memory usage that belongs to a specific extension.

Hi there all!

I have been using these Add-on's for years and suddenly this week they 'dropped off' - note the greyed out ones that no longer work. I did report the add on's via the button inside to the developers as potentially broken but I'm not sure how I would hear anything back from them about that. After about 4-5 days now they are still not working. I'm unsure why they are greyed out, and the others are not - why these stopped working and the others ok. Here are the screen shots of the ones I'm referring to! They were *VERY GOOD* add on's! I would super love them back.

If you have any advice please let me know.

Thank you.

Why in the world am I seeing these tab Groups and Studies

After reading some posts on here I went to about:config and browser.tabs.groups.enabled was set to True. I changed it to false. I never set it to True and haven’t a clue to what Tab Groups are and don’t see any reason for me to have them. I only use about 4 tabs and have no use for any more. But I was noticing a Blue square box next to a tab and clicked on it and it said I had a Tab group which I deleted. Don’t know how a tab group was built, I sure didn’t ask for one and haven’t a clue what they are???

While researching this I seen something that about:studies could be the problem. I looked at it and it showed I was or had been in 4 studies!! All of the studies showed completed. I did not join or ask to be in any studies, what is Firefox doing signing me up for studies? I went to Privacy and Security and nothing under Firefox Data Collection and Use is checked including install and run studies. I have people’s secured data on here and if it gets out I could be sued!

I have run 3 full scans of different virus and all is clear. This must be something Firefox is doing without asking me for permission. I did find that browser.tab.groups.enabled was true, so I know FF must have done that during an update and I set it to False. Some post say FF will change it back to True?

What is really strange is the studies, it says they did 4 that are completed, yet it was not checked in the Privacy and Security section. Can't tell when as there is not a date.

These were the studies:

prefflip-push-performance-1491171•Complete hotfix-reset-xpi-verification-timestamp-1548973•Complete hotfix-reset-xpi-verification-timestamp-1548973•Complete pref-flip-screenshots-release-1369150•Complete
