When you suspend and resume the PC, the software will be behaving as if it had always been running. You'd have to have quit and restarted Firefox, itself, to behave any differently. > Booting when I think I should by how many kernels I am behind versus > running.

I've tried that kind of thing in the past, and something always goes haywire. e.g. I'll have a fight with the PC to get sound running, again. It'll just fail, and won't run. And I'll either have to relog, or reboot, to get things working again. There always seems to be a bug somewhere. > So those background tabs tend to have things running along, and I do > have to figure out this earlyoom to see if it might help here. > > I may be in the process of researching some purchase for me or my > wife.

Anything other than flat static HTML is a major candidate for chewing through your memory, CPU load, and network bandwidth. Pages that load adverts may continually load new ones, perhaps multimedia ones. Some pages may time-out on you. Pages that try to be flashy and follow all the latest design trends because authors and commerce have the Emperor's New Clothes attitude are always going to be the worst (sales, news, gossip, etc). If you look at their source code, they seem to be 5% content and 95% code, most of it scripting upon scripting, for the sake of it rather than needing it. It's just ripe for bad coding to run berserk on you. -- 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.
