I might give the manager thing a try and see what it offers me.

I've noticed the same thing, that when you fire-up Firefox, only the
currently selected tab actually loads.  Mine is set up to remember and
restore the previous session.  I do shut down the browser, and log off
the computer.

Perhaps other people are leaving their browser running 24/7?  I'm not
sure what Firefox does with pages on unselected tabs when the browser
is always running.  I suspect *anything* running on those tabs will
keep on running, because I know I can switch away from tabs playing
YouTube videos and the sound keeps going.  I'm not at all surprised
that something bad might romp through all the RAM.
