Comment (by bugzilla): Replying to [comment:26 mcs]: > It surprises me that Firefox does not cancel all network activity as a browser tab is closed, but maybe that hurts performance. I don't think any harm is done in this case because, even though the catch all circuit would be used, there is no tor to talk to any more. But I wonder if this same situation can happen when closing a window or tab without exiting the browser. Probably we should open a new ticket for this issue. Seems you didn't see ticket:18047#comment:3. You'll be more surprised to know that webpages continue to stay in a cache, so that it's possible to reopen them in a old state.
