Did not happen before. May be related to video codec, but it's new in FireFox.
Running on Windows 10 Pro, 64GB RAM and 12GB vRAM - while fastest low latency RAM, everything runs at defaults.
Set FireFox to not use hardware acceleration. I need the vRAM for Adobe's Camera Raw, Lightroom Classic and Photoshop.
These were early adopters of GPU co-processing that after some time stopped to give benefits. Turned out that FireFox and Windows Explorer were using vRAM as cache for images. It's too expensive for that.
The Zen version of FireFox doesn't help here.
On Linux FF is much better behaved - using Ubuntu Studio at latest OS and app update level.
Memory management seems quite bad and while aMeSs has a reputation for that, FF caches a lot and seems to keep stuff in memory even after closing tabs, not windows yet.
Running without hardware acceleration seems FF starts a virtual GPU process using 1GB RAM. That's no problem for me, if it worked smoothly.
Oh, while I'm nagging here - can you compile a "private" only runtime that I then can make my default browser?
Please note - memory management - that the private browser does not delete cookies related to websites that have their tabs all closed - talk about garbage collection.
If the Linux version were the reference - and I still have to see if I have the latest version of FF there - then that's what a user of aMeSs Windoes needs.
Thanks for all the work you do. I'm motivated to continue to use FF.
