Despite making the following changes to /etc/login.conf there were no
improvements to Firefox's behavior when logging into that site.
staff:\
# :datasize-cur=1536M:\ 2022/12/09 INCREASE MEMORY SPACE

# :maxproc-max=512:\ 2022/12/09 INCREASE MAX NUM OF PROCESSES
:maxproc-max=1024:\
# :maxproc-cur=256:\ 2022/12/09 INCREASE LIMIT NUM OF PROCESSES
:maxproc-cur=512:\

Task Manager showed that I got nowhere near my memory or process number
limits. I returned login.conf to its original values.
Thought I'd let the group know in case someone was diagnosing a similar
issue or it triggered a helpful insight.

FYI update - My apologies for resurrecting this issue but I recently
discovered that if I'm in the root account, rather than that of a
standard user's, I'm am able to successfully log into the web site.
I'll increase the resources allocated to the staff group to see if
that makes a difference otherwise I suspect the problem relates to the
rights limitations imposed on Firefox &/or a user's account.
