I-Firefox Community Forum

Some websites won't load at all while other are very slow to load but some will load just fine, example Crunchyroll (screenshot attached) won't load at all its just spinning loading icon and a white page but if I try it in a different browser it works just fine, but with Youtube it will load but is choppy and low quality videos and same thing as before I load it in a different browser and no problems. I have tried every possible solution I can find from clearing cookies and cache to refreshing Firefox even scanned for malware and virus nothing has worked please help me figure out what is happening and why it's only with Firefox that I am having this problem and its not hardware can play online just fine and download games from steam perfectly fine.

For the past few weeks, my PC reliably crashed after a few chess games on chess.com with Firefox. GPU and Memory benchmarks are running through without issues, it did crash when starting a Steam game once before, but I wasn't able to find out why. At this point, I'm really curious to learn about what could possibly cause this, but don't really know where to look for it. Really wondering what special thing is happening after a game there that doesn't happen with other websites/browsers. Would really appreciate your help!

Running Wayland on Archlinux 6.15.7 with AM5 CPU and DDR5 memory. Sometimes wondering if it's a graphics issue since my display is connected via the iGPU, but I also have an NVIDIA graphics card installed that I use for games sometimes.

Firefox is using about 15-20% of my CPU, with only one tab open. Running Firefox 141.0.3 (64-bit). I changed performance settings as suggested in support page; made no apparent difference. Ran Malwarebytes and McAfee scans; nothing detected. I have used Firefox for nearly 20 years, but if I cannot resolve this then I will drop Firefox and switch to another browser.

Hi: There is no Refresh Firefox tab. I go to Help More troubleshooting information. Like I've done a million times. And for Diagnose Issues there's only a Troubleshoot Mode and a Clear startup cache tab. No Refresh Firefox tab. I did not want a new profile. I did not want additional profiles. This has messed everything up. Firefox is not working. Thank you

I AM SENDING TWO SCREENSHOTS IN ORDER FOR YOU TO SEE WHY I AM SAYING GOOD BYE TO FIREFOX OVER 4000 OF RESOURCES AS YOU CAN SEE AND FIREFOX HAD 4 TABS OPEN ALL OF THEN JUST OPENED UP SO THEY WERE NOT YET CONNECTED TO ANY WEBPAGE.

I CANNOT SPEND HOURS TRYING TO FIX THIS

SO I AM MOVING TO ANOTHER BROWSER

I JUST WANTED TO SAY CIAO

Firefox kept eating my RAM, running dozens of processes. I have gone into about:config and set the dom.ipc.processCount to 1 - then I restarted Firefox and found 5 processes running straightaway before even using the browser. I closed it down and have started it again and now there are 11 processes running with just one tab open. Firefox(9044) Utility(7552) JavaScript oracle Network (15912) Data Decoder (11364) GPU (18744) About pages (12536) Preloaded new tab Extensions (20544) Preallocated (16132) Preallocated (13780) Preallocated (16044)

The problem repeats on three different computers which are not infected with malware. One computer with slightly less RAM I now cant even use Firefox at all (though all other browsers work fine) because the tabs constantly crash due to the high number of processes. Is there any way to set the process limit low in a way that Firefox actually responds to?

When I sign in, multiple firefox open, causing my machine to run slow. I have to go to task manager, close all the firefox and start over. I usually have to do this several times before I can get signed on. Once on, the new Windows 11 seems to work well with Firefox.

I noted in the multiple firefox accounts the following Group or User Names in the Details section. Are these normal or could they be the source of my problems???

ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES ALL RESTRICTED APPLICATION PACKAGES ACCOUNT UNKOWN (S-1-15-3-1024-1238444810-1356253261-2257478630-1143196962-1563090664-2414759320-12821011916-4218287853) Following these were the regular System Admin groups I am used to seeing.

How to correct if a problem.

What minimum memory spec is recommended for current Firefox usage? Have new computer with 16GB memory, 512 storage, intel core Ultra 5-225 processor & windows 11. Have not set it up yet.

I am running Firefox on Windows 10 64-bit, and I have lots of windows and tabs open. Occasionally I will get a message from Windows that I am running low on disk space. Recently I got the message, and I saw on my C-drive" "336,044,032 bytes free". After I did an Exit in Firefox, I saw "10,082,402,304 bytes free". The space that was freed was in the pagefile.sys file. Is this normal?

Dear Community,

Using Cloud applications via browser and my mail webbased I have Firefox installed. This browser was in my opinion always the better choice, but last months I experience strange behavior, cache issues, freezing pages, crashing tabs which is very annoying and frustrating when working in the cloud. In the same session it is possible that I suddenly can't open objects anymore or click on URL's, buttons not reacting or even can't login again, even when I just was logged in successfully. After refreshing and restarting the browser or sometimes even after restarting my device, everything is working properly again for a while. The same issues I have when using the incognito browser, especially when I use this for cloud application for example. I can't explain and my questions are: - anyone experiencing, familiar with and or know of this same kind of browser behavior and - if yes, how to solve this?

Thanks in advance and kind regards,

Aad

I opened a new Firefox session (closed the previous one properly using the “Exit” option, without force-killing it) and had only 4 tabs open:

One YouTube video at 1080p One bookmaker site that may have a 240p video playing Two Flashscore tabs (static pages, no video)

When I end all firefox.exe processes, the Task Manager shows that about 10 GB of RAM is freed.

How can just four tabs be using that much memory? Please help me with this issue.

Thank you!

When Firefox ver. 143.0.4 (64bit) is opened, I see many tiny groups of black dots withing the whole of the desktop display of this Firefox. From these black dots I see coloured lines traveling across the desktop within the Firefox desktop display. As I move the mouse these coloured lined move, disappear, and move around. Can you offer any suggestions. I am using Ubuntu UALinux Gamepack 22.04, The version of Firefox is an upgrade provided by Firefox updates. I have tried to uninstall this version of Firefox, same effect occuring. I have manually deleted every referance to Firefox, as this worked in UALinux Gamepack 20.04. I have used sudo apt update, sudo apt upgrade, sudo apt --fix-broken install, and sudo dpkg --configure -a. None of these can fix this problem. I restarted my Firefox today with the same problem, and found in the Help dropdown menu, and found troubleshoot mode. When I opened in troubleshoot mode, all these problems are not there any more.

Can you offer any help ??????

P.S. I tryed to take a screenshot of this problem, but the screenshot doesn't show this problem ?

Each time I click on Firefox from the Windows 11 Task Bar, multiple versions of Firefox appear in the task manager (see photo). Some have an icon next to them that says "efficiency mode".

The attached screenshot is what I got from loading Firefox to ask this question. Multiple scans of my computer using Norton 360 -- including the Startup Scan -- have found nothing awry.

The operating system is Windows 11 Pro Edition Version 24H2 (OS Build 26,100.6584.) Firefox says it is fully up to date.
