Firefox 79: A thin release for regular users, but plenty for developers to devour

Just checked the Wife's computer.

Just updated the computer in the barn (to Firefox 78.1.0esr running on kernel 5,4,54). Firefox 78.0.2esr had been running non-stop on kernel 5.4.51 since July 10th. It had been rather heavily used in those three weeks of uptime. There was no sign of memory being gobbled up &etc.

The dev box here in the office that I use to keep an eye on things like this has similarly seen none of the issues that you describe. Bleeding edge kernel & Firefox, updated sometimes daily.

I suspect there is something else wrong with your computer.
