I don't know if this is your problem, but Firefox can be a memory hog.
Bookmarks tend to be forgotten, so when I find something interesting I
wanted to read later I'll leave a tab or window open on the site.
Typically I can have 6-10 tabs like that. I found that Firefox's memory
usage would grow even just sitting there unattended until it was using
several GB of RAM.
On a 4GB system it got to the point that I had to restart Firefox almost
daily or I would find myself running out of swap space.
My "solution" was to build a new system with 16GB of RAM. :-/
