When I wake up Firefox from sleep overnight, it is unresponsive until I force quit. I am on v147.0.4 on my M4 Mac Mini. It doesn't happen in shorter sleep periods. I can click something in it and then when I switch to another app, it responds. But the browser on normal interactions won't respond at all.

"Recently closed windows" context now only shows 25 windows when it's set to 60 in about:config

I have my browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo in about:config set to 60 – it's been like this and working fine for several months.

It's set to this high number because I use an assistive technology which creates a fresh pop-up every time I deploy it, and Firefox treats it as a browser window closure when I close the pop-up. Consequently, I can easily rattle through well over 25 window closures in a day.

It's not necessarily that each window contains dozens of tabs and copious data, but nevertheless Firefox still treats it as a window 'within the meaning of the act'!

I just went to reopen one closed window from a couple days ago which did contain many tabs (partly why I closed it in the first place), only to find that the 'recently-closed windows' context menu is now only showing 20 windows (18 of which are the aforementioned pop-up assistive technology windows)

The really vital window that I want to reopen is not showing.

I've double checked in about: config and the browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo is still set to 60 windows; nothing has been altered or reset.

I updated Firefox to 147.0.4 yesterday evening, but the problem existed before I updated Firefox, and is still in evidence since updating.

Two questions:

1) Why is the Recently Closed Windows context menu not showing the full number of windows it has been successfully doing with no problem now for months? I used to have to scroll down to access the full extent of the 60, but they were always there.

2) Why has it arbitrarily changed to 25 windows?

3) [I lied – Our chief weapons etc...] Is there a way that – given about:config still implies that the most recent 60 windows are retrievable – that I can access beyond the 25 windows limit that are currently showing as reopenable?

Thanks very much


(And yes, I already have things like OneTab and Tab Session Manager add-ons, but disabled those just before closing the important window, because I was trying to locate which add-on was draining the CPU. I assumed my 'recently-closed windows' buffer of 60 would suffice while I disabled the add-ons.)
