    2 years at best , still able to run new games on highest settings.

    twice in past 2 weeks. Completely random.

    If you were interested extensions are:

    Libredirect
    Improve youtube (for youtube & videos)
    LiveTL
    Auto Tab discard (added after finding firefox devouring memory for some reason to the point youtube was lagging)
    BetterTTV
    Panorama tab groups
    600% Sound Volume

    Currnetly 52 tabs open, which I did both on Chrome and Opera as well.

    Again this is still not to the point that I feel like I can’t deal with it. The crashes were completely random and not to the point of becoming a trend.

      do u have those extensions in chrome as well? meybe its an extension

      • An extension shouldn’t be able to crash the browser, though.

        The crash details would be useful to know. The “windows reliability history” menu (how its called) of the control panel shows some of the useful things

        Similar. In Opera I used
        ublock (forgot to include in firefox list)
        Libredirect
        Improve youtube
        LiveTL
        And a different sound volume extension

        Prior to that in Chrome, I used
        ublock
        improve youtube
        livetl
        and yet ANOTHER volume extension (for some reason volume extensions get flagged a lot)

        I will say as an aside from our discussion, just to stress

        I’m not trying to say Firefox is doing bad at performance (I know going through this explaining my setup it may sound that way)

        What i’m trying to say is that in response to the original comment

        It’s interesting how we all are focusing on tiny non-noticeable performance gains when privacy is what matters in browsers.

        To basically say “Nono, performance is important! Please don’t stop”

        And yes, privacy is also important, Firefox can have both, and I really want to encourage that. Not one or the other.
