I tried killing it multiple times, but it only died after around 4 minutes. Then one of the processes was succesfully killed, but another remained and started going on a RAM binge. This time memory was still not full (although almost) when I succesfully closed firefox. I capped a moment when this happened in the middle of last week. When this issue arises, I usually only have two or three tabs open. This issue seems to be happening less frequently, although it could be just coincidence. After switching to firefox-esr, I went back to regular firefox, which was already a version newer than I was using initially. I actually tried to fill my RAM by opening like 6 or 7 tabs of heavy websites, but that was not enough and is way out of my usual browsing behavior. It doesn't take this much on my system for subsequent tabs. I was not familiar with the fact that firefox might take >300MB per open tab, in fact I never bothered to check, because I never had this problem. It's just WindowMaker and a dozen dockapps, no compositor. I don't have a desktop environment installed and I'm not on ZFS. Hey folks, although I haven't had time to reply, I was keeping up with this thread.
