Firefox using 20MB per/sec of ssd

I noticed in the past day that Firefox started using alot of ssd. It wasn't doing this before, I've been a Firefox user for years now. I'd like to stay that way rather than going with Google or Microsoft. I don't trust some of the other small companies with browsers. I like the fact that Firefox uses it's own engine too. In the last day it started using alot of disk for no reason. How do I fix this. Well, well, well. I just noticed that Icloud from Apple was using alot of disk too and when I shut it down in task manager it stopped. Firefox disk use is virtually none just like Microsoft Edge. So it's some kind of interaction with Icloud that is causing that. But it wasn't doing that before. I have task manager open most of the time to catch stuff like that. My system is decent I have a 2TB 990, 2TB 980, and a 2 TB 860, with and AMD 5800x, 32 GB of ram and an Nvidia rtx 470. Maybe some kind of backup with Icloud was happening, that isn't with Edge. So I know shutting that off works. Icloud is useful for backing up things from my phone though.
