What can I do about excessive memory usage by Firefox? I'm about ready to remove from my system. I get memory availability alerts from my very up to date Mac system only when Firefox is active. I've been with you for a LONG time so hate to leave but this is not a good situation.

As of a few days ago (potentially coinciding with the most recent update?) I've had several websites become varying degrees of unresponsive when using Firefox while being connected to a VPN (Nord, in this case).

Some sites will load but then get throttled--i.e. YouTube will load and (usually) populate thumbnails, but clicking on a video will result in the video instantly dropping to its lowest available resolution, playing for a few seconds, and then stalling. Interestingly(?) if I try to watch a live stream, chat will be fully functional but the video will be unable to load. Other sites will load but then very quickly stop responding at all. Others are straight up just not loading period, while many others have no issues at all.

I've cleared my cache, deleted cookies for the affected sites, tried Firefox in a private window, tried Firefox with no extensions, and reinstalled both Nord and Firefox to no avail. All of the affected sites are fully functional so long as I'm not connected to a VPN, and are also fully functional on other browsers, even while connected to a VPN. All other non-browser related applications that require the internet are also unaffected, and my internet speeds in general aren't showing any issues.

I've been unable to find any other chatter about this anywhere, and I unfortunately don't have any other devices available to try and replicate the issues. I would not be surprised if it was one of those wonderful Me Exclusive DNS issues or something, but figured it was worth throwing out there.

ANNOYING!! I am unable to reach USA TODAY puzzles.

Window turns black with rotating arrow. I do not want to give in to BING, but I am able to work the puzzles when I use it.

I use Win 11 and normally use DUCK DUCK GO search

This is a technical question. Recently, Mozilla added the ability to manually restart the GPU process in about:processes, which is very useful when it leaks memory. Does anyone know if they also programmed Firefox to automatically restart the GPU process if its memory usage becomes suspiciously high, for example, if it exceeds a very high percentage of system RAM at a reasonable baseline (e.g. 7GB out of 8GB RAM)? That would help reduce complaints about GPU process memory leaks. Thanks.

Когда firefox зависает и windows предлагает его убить, firefox получает права системы и по этому становиться не убиваемым.Система не может его убить потому что у его права системы .В первые заметил этот баг когда сделал браузер firefox браузером по умолчанию.У меня сим роутер при запуске системы открывает браузер тут та браузер и зависает (не всегда ,но часто) в диспетчере задач в этот момент у его права системы.Писал в майрософт ,майкрософт посоветовал пользоваться нормальным браузером и сменить браузер по умолчанию .По совету майкрософт сменил браузер по умолчанию на chrome проблема пропала.

After letting Firefox idle for a bit (like 5 seconds) and nothing playing on the screen, when I come back, it causes screen stuttering for my whole desktop. Disabling hardware hardware acceleration doesn't help much.

OS: Arch Linux x86_64 Kernel: Linux 6.14.5-arch1-1 Display (CMN1521): 1920x1080 @ 144 Hz in 15" [Built-in] WM: Hyprland 0.49.0 (Wayland) CPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700H (20) @ 4.70 GHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile [Discrete]

Hello!

I would be very grateful if you could help me figure it out, the browser suddenly stopped working, does not open any tabs, just a blank screen, does not open settings, some buttons simply do not respond at all. I cleaned the SScleaner yesterday, but I did not select anything special there, it was a basic regular cleaning that the program offers.

How do I fix this? reinstalling does not help, the browser still does not work

When using the browser, my monitor starts to "blink". To be more precise, it just pops up a black screen for a second or two. I use both monitors and both go off, the cursor remains. There was no such thing before using the browser, but Firefox remains the only sensible browser, so I don't want to change it to something else. I've tried turning off hardware acceleration, but it doesn't help.

I have been experiencing a lot of lagging, lockups and closure when browsing. I use Windows Version 10.0.26100 Build 26100. My Firefox version is 138.0.3 (64-bit). While telling you about this issue, my systems has locked up. I had to wait for it to start again. I have had to use other browsers, Google Chrome and Edge to complete tasks. I am able to browse and do everything fluidly, without issue using those browsers.

I have noticed that certain website just do not work well with Firefox. I'm wondering why that is? For instance, Petsmart.Com. That's a popular website. I almost always have to complete my orders using a different browser. Is there anything that I can do about this? I'm really frustrated and getting ready to ditch Firefox.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

When navigating through video websites, the browser often becomes unresponsive and refreshes the interface. When accessing other websites, the browser tabs frequently experience crashes.

Details regarding the operating system, laptop model, and browser version are provided below, and the screenshot of unresponsive website has been attached with this, um email or message.

I get a message "We Encountered an Error" Please restart your application to try again. It continues to pop up (only when I'm in Firefox) and I click the button "close" and can continue until it pops up again. This just started today. Is there anyway to get this to stop?

Hi, Once last week I had Firefox crash, like quite literally the window I had open just closed abruptly. Tried doing the refresh using the setup wizard and it did not help. Then I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling several times. Each time it'll open up like new, and within 10 minutes the window closes randomly and then Firefox doesn't launch anymore on my laptop. No error message, just does not launch whether I try to from taskbar or Home or even run as administrator. Seemingly random I've been using Firefox for months and it just started doing this last week.

Sorry for lack of other info, thanks for any help you're able to give.

I'm debugging some web sites, and I often need to reload a page to see if a change I made on the server works correctly. On iPads and Android devices, this doesn't seem possible. Yes, there are the circular-arrow buttons, but they only work with Firefox (and Chrome;-) on my MacOS or my linux server, but not on my iPads or Android gadgets. They act like they're doing something, but the page on their screen doesn't change. (With FF or Chrome on the "real" computers, it does change). The only advice I find online is to use CTL-R or something similar but those "devices" don't have CTL buttons. Nothing else I guess at works, either.

When I ask online, I get replies that work for linux, MacOS or Windows, but clearly saying "iPad or Android doesn't help; the answers don't apply to those systems.

Am I missing something? Web developers need ways debug their code or html or whatever they're working on, and this requires checking how it works on the actual users' screens.

Why after the most recent update to version 139.0.4 64bit does any Google search result page on Firefox now use 110% cpu according to about:processes? This isn't the first time a Firefox update has caused this to happen on my computer either. It causes extreme system lag until I'm able to close the Google search result page in Firefox, then everything returns to operating normally. In the past subsequent Firefox updates have resolved the issue but it can sometimes be a while before the next update is released and that one is not always the one that fixes it. Is there something I can do resolve this without having to wait for future updates to be released?

I delete all the old bookmarks that come up and restart and they come up again or Firefox completely freezes my computer. I tried to Refresh Firefox and that worked UNTIL I signed out and signed back in again. Then I get dozens of sites trying to open and freezing again.
