I haven’t experienced that. What is the use-case that makes this happen?
I have one machine with only 8 gig and firefox is fine, and a 16 and 32 gig machine, firefox has never eaten 8 gigs
What they mean is “I use woefully malformed websites loaded up with all sorts of weird shit that eats ram on the regular, and somehow that’s my browser’s fault”

I have a VPS with 1 GB of RAM and Firefox with up to 3 tabs is fine. OK, it’s running Linux maybe FF on Windows is worse.
I’m on Debian. Firefox is reporting ~6% memory usage. At 192gb RAM (go brrrrr), that is over 11 gigs.
No idea what it’s doing. I got Gmail open and YouTube open. I have ublock origin and keepass browser extensions.
