Firefox has become an intense RAM resource hog...

Has anyone noticed the increased resources Firefox 132.0.1 uses as reported by Task Manager?  No other process even approaches what Firefox now demands.  Firefox is routinely using 50-100% more RAM (>800MB) than Edge (500MB) and it causes my desktop computer fans to rev.  My laptop slows to a painful crawl when I open Firefox now.  Shutdown Firefox and both simmer right down.  What's going on?

I'm here for obviously the same reason. I suddenly saw my M3 iMac breaching the 100% CPU usage and everything froze. Turned out it was Firefox. WTF.
