Uncaught Out of Memory Error Despite Ample RAM Availability - Firefox 126.0a1

Hi,

I am encountering an issue where Firefox throws an "Uncaught out of memory" error in the console, despite my system having ample RAM available. Here are the details of the problem:

  • Error Message in Console: Uncaught out of memory
  • Memory Usage Observed: Using about:processes, I noticed that Firefox's maximum memory usage caps at around 7GB.
  • System Specifications: The machine running Firefox has 128GB of RAM, so there should be plenty of memory available.
  • Firefox Version: 126.0a1

Given the significant amount of RAM available on my machine, it seems unusual that Firefox would hit a memory limit at just 7GB. I suspect there might be a bug or a misconfiguration causing this issue.

Can you please assist in diagnosing and resolving this problem? Are there any settings or configurations I should adjust, or is this a known issue with the current version of Firefox?

Thank you for your help.

bold text All of a sudden today Saturday the 11th Thunderbird stopped sending email on COX but it can receive them. It was working fine then all of a sudden the sending of email stopped. At first I thought that is was Cox being down again, (I've had connection problems this week). But while I was trying to figure it out I received a number of emails. I tried sending a test email to myself usually they go right away but it did not go.

I called Cox. They tech connected to my computer, made some checks, (updated Thunderbird) and after about 20 minutes it started to send messages. 10 minutes later it stopped working AGAIN. This started a four hour telephone marathon with just about every level of service that Cox has. I ended up with Complete Care and while I was on the phone with him and he was connected to my computer the service tech from Cox who was here to check my signal and modem showed up. He tried to look at the problem and could not figure it out. Note I can send and receive mail from the COX email website but and only receive email in Thunderbird.

Cox tells me it is a Mozilla or Thunderbird problem I'm telling them it is not that it is a Cox problem because the server is SENDING me email to Thunderbird but the Cox INCOMING mail server it not connecting to Thunderbird to receive emails. They claim that because I can send and receive on the web page but can not send with Thunderbird. I'm telling them it is a Cox problem.

Anyone else have this issue? Anyone have a solution? I'm shutdown here with over a 25 year history of emails sitting in Thunderbird.

Is it possible to change Firefox's default keybinds? I don't see an option for this in Settings, nor in about:preferences or about:config. Some discussions on these forums suggest autoconfig.conf but that doesn't seem to have any options for keybinds. I found several KB articles on customizing Firefox, but none said anything about default keybinds:

KB: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars KB: Firefox advanced customization and configuration options KB: Customizing Firefox Using AutoConfig

For example, I'd like to change the keybind to open a private window from the default [Shift]+[Cmd]+P to [Shift]+[Cmd]+N. The latter is standard on most other browsers and is in my muscle memory. Is there any way to do that?

All Add-ons are disabled and Firefox still can not play SOME of the videos on twitter. All I can see is a spinning circle on the center of the frame and the video will never be played. I tried other browsers and they all works well. It seems this issue has nothing to do with my network connection.

I searched this forum and find out some thread reporting issues of not playing All videos on youtube/twitter. Replies to these thread provided some solutions ,like update ffmpeg , set media related options in about:config. I tried them all and neither of them work for me.

My Wife's computer - still on Windows 10 - says it can't start Firefox as it is still running, hitting the "close Firefox now" button just returns us to the same screen. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox it tried to do a "reinstall" it says her profile is no longer available, while inconvenient she still should be able to start it up, but it still gives me the same message. that it is still running and needs closed. Trying to "close it doesn't do anything. I have restarted several times and even did a shut down and restart. Nothing seems to work. I assume some "stub" of Firefox is out there in the system/cache making Firefox think it is is still active but I can't find it to shut it down. Where do I need to go to "end task" on this phantom Firefox?

Other information: 1. We have Norton Security software installed, if that matters. 2. The same seems to happening to Thunderbird, but maybe I need to go to another help forum for that? 3. I am entering this issue from my computer that seems to be just fine with Firefox, so can't send browser data as it is irrelevant to the issue (it's on a different computer and install instance.

Hello everyone,

I've been experiencing an issue with my website when viewed on Mozilla Firefox. Some elements seem to be rendering incorrectly or not displaying at all.

Hello dear community,

I have a program that continuously monitors the download folder under Windows 11 for a specific file and retrieves it. I download this file in Firefox, but the said program gives an error.

I have noticed that when files are downloaded in FireFox, they already appear in the Downloads folder with the corresponding file extension with 0 bytes and these are then apparently swapped or merged with the .parts file.

The problem is that the mentioned program now tries to retrieve the unfinished file, which then leads to an error.

Does anyone know if it is possible to customize Firefox so that the file only appears in the download folder when the download is fully complete?

Many thanks for your help :D

I am assisting my friend Lindsay in aged care to enable him to continue to use Thunderbird for email. Currently TB will receive mail but unable to send.

This is complicated in that Lindsay is paying iPrimus.com.au a monthly fee to enable him to use an old email address xx@bluep.com. I can log in to the iPrimus web portal to send and receive xx@bluep.com emails, https://webmail.iprimus.com.au/?_task=mail&_mbox=INBOX.

I downloaded Thunderbird version 115.6.0 (64-bit) on my pc this morning and the Auto Set Up configured mail.bluep.com as the incoming (POP) and outgoing (SMTO) servers. Mail is coming in but not sending.

I changed the outgoing server to smtp.iprimus.com.au, default port 587 however messages still cannot be sent and Thunderbird shows that smtp settings must be reconfigured.

I spoke this morning to iPrimus Tech Support who advised the default smtp port should be 25, not 587. However I have found that resetting the smtp port to 25 does not enable emails to send.

Note that I have previously set the smtp port to 587 which enabled sending on non ISP connections. This ability would be required as Lindsay is using whatever Wi-Fi service is available in the facility.

iPrimus Tech Support have suggested I should contact Thunderbird (Mozilla) about this problem.

Can you advise Thunderbird server settings for this situation.

Thanks for you assistance. Regards, Peter M

I have been successfully using Thunderbird for many years. In the last year or so I have been noticing that occasionally one of my sent emails gets corrupted such that the email body starts showing html text and the email subject header is changed to another email header that exists in the same folder but is unrelated to the email body. When I check the corrupted email from the Gmail web user interface, the email is not corrupted. I tried repairing the folder but to no avail.

I attach an example of a corrupted email below:

I notice this subject has been mentioned prior, but I cannot find a resolve. Been using Thunderbird for a long time without issues, but last week it stopped sending and receiving emails through the Skymesh internet provider. Still sends & receives Hotmail/Gmail/Yahoo, but will not connect to any Skymesh accounts. Have reinstalled/updated, but no change. SMTP timeout and if I change settings I get the 10060 error. Could not even connect to their Webmail page either. If I turn VPN on, then I can access their Webmail page. Rang Skymesh, they poked around and said it was all this end and with Thunderbird. Seems an IP number change via VPN with Opera resolved the Webmail page access, but I cannot do that thru Thunderbird. Running Win 7. Anyone ??

When running Thunderbird in Dark Mode, the message pane (that shows the message when you select it from your inbox) still has a white background. This makes perfect sense, because a dark background can easily mess up HTML mails.

Which I know because the compose / reply window does have a dark background, making it all but impossible to read what you're replying to if it was a HTML mail.

I would like to set the view and reply window to use the same background. Can this be achieved or is this a bug?

I have been getting a message that says firefox has something running and cannot shut down. I went into task manager and 'shut down' firefox, but the message keeps on coming. I then thought that I would uninstall it and then reinstall, but it tells me that it cannot uninstall because it is running, -"Firefox is already running but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window." When I click on ' Close Firefox' nothing happens. when I click on 'Cancel' the message disappears, but will reappear. Then in desperation, I went into program files and deleted the Fifefox folders but it wouldn't reinstall. There is obviously somewhere a file/file which is screwing me up, does anyone know what this it?
