Firefox, in every version I've used so far, appears to have memory leaks. If I kill it, not by clicking its little "X" or Alt-F4, but with "kill -9", so that it reopens everything when I restart it, my memory usage immediately drops by 75%. Then it creeps back up.
Firefox doesn't have any memory leaks. It actively uses buffers, cache, filling available memory. I have Firefox running for days, sometimes weeks. On slow laptop, and fast workstation PC. Same result, no crashes, no memory leaks. -- With kindest regards, Piotr. ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian - The universal operating system ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://www.debian.org/ ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀
