After Firefox has been running for a few days my Debian 12.5 gets really slow.
The mouse jerks when it works at all. It takes a minute or two for wndows to
close or top. At the moment, Firefox has 19 processes running. Memory is half
full, and swap is about 10% used. When I kill Firefox and restart, things go
back to normal for a few hours.
What alternatives that aren't such pigs do you recommend?
Waterfox has same problem.
Palemoon and Seamonkey are unusable because they don't implement fundamental
web technology like webworkers, webrtc, webcomponents, etc.
Also try "The Great Suspender",
it's an extension that freezes unused tabs so your system has a chance to
reclaim some memory.
it's quite configurable,
you can configure it to not touch specific tabs (by domain for eg.).
There's also Auto Tab Discard which does the same thing.
Best,
