Nevertheless, thank you for taking the time to respond. Since I've switched to chromium to work with lots of tabs there is no longer an issue. Still I use firefox for "lightweight" surfing on a notebook. >From my side we can close this bug. Thanks.

Every session those tabs are kept and reopened. Firefox uses 2,3 GB RAM and freezes. (screenshot of conky) I need to close firefox and shut down the machine after every session because after suspend and having firefox left open it is unusable.
