firefox takes enormous amounts of RAM and swap space, growing until
system crashes
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox
On my T400 with 2GB of RAM / 7GB of swap, the current beta12 of
firefox takes easily up to 1 GB of RAM and swap combined; I have also
observed amounts of up to 1GB RAM _AND_ 4GB of Swap yesterday. The
system (of course) gets incredibly laggy because of somewhat silly I/O
sizes, which creates full HDD load at the rate of less than 1 MB/s of
throughput. A system load of 20/15/10 (2 cores) rapidly occurs.
Moreover, mouse movement gets choppy and mouse acceleration stops
working, keyboard inputs are barely accepted.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 730311] Re: firefox takes enormous amounts of RAM and swap space, growing until system crashes
Alright, let's come to an end here. FF60 ESR will finally drop market
share below 10% / IE levels, and nobody cares about performance problems
and memory leaks on marginal browsers when they were ignored at 30%
market share already. It's dead, Jim.

Presumably you installed and update from
https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/ppa and apport can't
collect info from PPA installed applications. Looking at the PPA page it
seems that 52.9 ESR is due to be replaced by 60.2 ESR on 27th August. I
think you have two options to ensure that your problems are documented:
1) Update the bug report as best as you can with an updated summary,
description and tags.
2) Let this bug report go and start afresh if you see the same problems with
60.2 ESR in 3 weeks time.
I've changed the status back to "New" for now.

How collect that data with package firefox-esr installed? FF 52 ESR is
not/no longer available from Ubuntu repositories.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 730311] Re: firefox takes enormous amounts of RAM and swap space, growing until system crashes
Still an issue with FF ESR 52.9.0 and 8GB of RAM on Ubuntu 18.04. Grows
like cancer from a few hundred MB at startup to 2GB+, gets laggy above
1.5GB, gets unusable at 2GB. Not killing the entire system anymore, but
I can tell memory usage from zippyness of loading pages and reaction
time of especially JS-heavy sites.

Bzzz,
We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Presumably this problem was a one time occurrence and/or is no longer an
issue? Can this bug report now be closed?
If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in
approximately 60 days time.
Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
