I am at Firefox ESR 52.4. It still allows most of my add-ons to work and has the classic GUI.

I did run across a little program that enhances FF and the various renditions of it — FIREMIN. It seems to have taken control of the memory leaking Firefox has had since about version 0.7. I installed it a few weeks ago and occasionally check the FF usage through Task Manager. My FF memory usage dropped from 900meg to 15meg.

Yes, Firefox leaks memory something terrible. I’m going to check out your link. Thanks.

I am at 52.9.0 (64-bit) with many extensions, and multiple installs and profiles, but with 16GM of ram than the use of that is not a real problem, and so for one profile I moved the cached data to RAM in the interest of speed. This does not affect the cached date of add ons, so that such a add-on like Session Manager works fine.

When RAM use gets to high then I just hit the Memory Restart button.
