I have a HUGE problem with Firefox memory usage. Some open instances of firefox are taking anywhere from 600mb to 2.8gb of memory. Since firefox opens MANY instances even with only ONE active window, this very quickly uses all available memory (4gb) causing a full laptop crash.

More concerning is that CLOSING the worst instance of memory usage STILL leaves the single open page/tab open, so what exactly was the memory eating instance actually doing ???

I have included a screengrab of the many remaining instances of firefox in windows task manager AFTER closing the main culprit.

I have also included a screengrab of all the adblockers I use which I believed would limit unnecessary memory usage, but does not seem to be effective.

Many Thanks

I opened a new window and dragged a PDF into it. While the icons in the upper right do not include Edit, I just went to the field I needed to change (an alarm permit renewal, change of email). A box opened "somewhat" over where I clicked, and I was able to enter the new email, but I could not delete the old one. After saving and opening in Acrobat, both emails are written over each other, making both unreadable.

I cannot highlight my old email in the original form in order to select Delete. When I type my new one, a trash can appears, but that is for deleting what I just entered.

When I log in to Thunderbird, performance is fine for a little while, and then suddenly and for no apparent reason it slows down so that it is unuseable (5-10 seconds to complete one click command). The task manager tells me that it is occupying c10% of CPU. After a while it stops being slow and I can work for another few minutes, and then it slows down again. It is unuseable. I am using Thunderbird 128.6esr (32 bit) with Windows 10.

All help gratefully received!

I've been noticing lately that when watching a video in landscape orientation fullscreen every now and then the screen rotates back to portrait orientation. Note that I do not touch the phone when this happens nor is there any bump or other even minor movement.

I also noticed that simply pausing and playing the video fixes this.

I have a short screen capture video but I can't attach videos to this.

I use Firefox 134.0.2 (aarch64) as my primary web browser. I only have it open 15 minutes and I am receiving alerts that my RAM memory is being consumed by it. I am using a Mac Mini Pro M2 chip with 32GB of RAM . I have just opened Firefox to discover it is taking 10GB of that RAM. It is the most voracious user. If I have it open longer it gets up to 16GB of memory. I often have 5 or 6 tabs open when I am working. My other browser is Chrome that barely makes it to 1GB

Since some weeks TB is getting extremely disabled: very often apeears the message "no response" (German: keine Rückmeldung), and I can´t go on working with TB, just have to wait 5 til 10 ore more seconds. I guess, TB is dowloading emails ("456 of 1367" something like that is the message downside the window). That happens repeatingly. I have no idea when and why. I am managing 5 eMail IMAP accounts. Only in one account the inbox contains also the trash, the sent, the archive and other directories, which do not belong to the inbox. But I can not move them to the main directory of the account. All other Account seem to have the correct directory system. What to do?

Version 128.6.1esr, This just recently started. When I open an email and navigate to an advertisement picture within that email I used to be able to left click on that picture and it would open up a window in my chrome web browser. Now, when I navigate to that picture, all it does is show the icon that allows you to expand the size of that picture. Any idea's on how I can restore it back to the mouse arrow to allow me to click on the embedded link within the picture?

I have a repeatable issue that was present in Firefox but is now fixed (automatically, nothing I did). Hoping that we can find a solution in Thunderbird also.

I have a Mac (Intel) with a VPN connection (wireguard) to my office just for office traffic. Regular traffic bypasses the VPN. Every time the machine goes to sleep for an extended amount of time (overnight), Thunderbird's DNS resolutions fail. I have 8 different IMAP accounts (including 2 gmail accounts). None are using the VPN connection but direct email address.

After sleep, there is no more connections and the culprit is DNS failures on all accounts. This is the only software (and I have many running simultaneously!) that is affected. Solution is to shutdown Thunderbird and restart. Resetting the dnscache on mac doesn't work. *SOMETIMES* disconnecting from VPN and reconnecting resets it, but not always.

I had the issue with both Mozilla products (Firefox and Thunderbird) and was just living with it. But a recent update in Firefox fixed it on that software. I haven't looked at the release logs to see if anything changed.

So I'm guessing there is something we can do with Thunderbird to reset the DNS or something else when it comes back from sleep.

Let me know if any more information would be helpful.

Current Version is Thunderbird Nebula 128.7.0esr (64-bit)

There has been an odd issue with my audio while using YouTube on Firefox, random stuttering that wasn't there before.

I use JBL Tune 525BT headphones and I never had this problem before. I have tried:

  • Resetting my headphones
  • Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox
  • Turning my headphones off and reconnecting them
  • Uninstalling some extensions

As well as resetting my phone, but nothing seemed to help with the stuttering. It isn't a problem with my internet, I have triple checked and it isn't a problem with my headphones either, as audio on apps such as:

  • YouTube music
  • Spotify
  • SoundCloud

Has no stutter.

There's also another thing: Whenever I enter YouTube, the 'Open in another app' pop-up appears, even though it never did that before.

I'm not sure what the issue is, as the problem randomly appeared and I'm not fully sure how to fix it and I've tried multiple times already. If anyone knows how to fix it or even what the problem is, their insights would be greatly appreciated! Much thanks.

Hi, I apologize in advance for sending this thread out from my mobile browser, but it's the safer option at this point.

This problem started after I went into my about:config page and disabled browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory. After these crashes began, I went and re-enabled this setting, but the problem persisted on all websites.

So far, I've:

  • Opened and closed Firefox an innumerable amount of times
  • Uninstalled a potentially beefy addon (Shinigami Eyes)
  • Ensured 'recommended performance settings' & 'use hardware acceleration' were disabled
  • Refreshed Firefox (and restored all addons & themes to how they previously were)

I really don't know what to do, and I'm very distressed. I want to keep using Firefox! I'm hesitant about uninstalling & reinstalling, but if that's the solution I can try it out.

Thank you in advance ^_^
