I have twice swap as memory. But that is not a solution. A program 
that needs so much memory for nothing should leave my computer.

I suspect, it is a bug in firefox 56.0. Someone wrote that his
higher version never crashed. Iridium in my computer also did
not crash till now. Unfortunately, I cannot download at the
moment other brosers for testing.

They need it to compensate the lack of resources in the brain of
the programmers. Not only of browser programmers, but of the lot 
of Web developers, many of them who lerned programming with
javascript.

I thank the lot of ansers, but unfortunately the decision is difficult,
because it is not in the hand of the user. One must follow the mass, 
use what the mass use, otherwise you cannot see the most complicated
pages, and the more important pages tend to be complicated (as 
online banking). One could use an alternative with the render machine 
of a wide spread browser, but as someone noted, surf, that has safaris
webkit, is not actualized and has rendering problems.
