But neither needs an extension. I might give the manager thing a try and see what it offers me. I've noticed the same thing, that when you fire-up Firefox, only the currently selected tab actually loads. Mine is set up to remember and restore the previous session. I do shut down the browser, and log off the computer. Perhaps other people are leaving their browser running 24/7? I'm not sure what Firefox does with pages on unselected tabs when the browser is always running. I suspect *anything* running on those tabs will keep on running, because I know I can switch away from tabs playing YouTube videos and the sound keeps going. I'm not at all surprised that something bad might romp through all the RAM. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.49.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Nov 30 15:51:32 UTC 2021 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
