In daily work tasks, I end up with a large number of windows and tabs open. I am wondering if this is not adding to my extremely slow recovery of frozen tabs and windows and MANY instances of "Non-Responsive" everyday.
Firefox is set to allow multiple processes, naturally, but I'm looking for ways to ease the pain here.
If I disable Multiple Processes in Firefox v138.0.1, will I have problems running, for example, 5 windows with a total of 30 tabs spread across those Windows? (God knows I don't wanna have to grow up and actually manage the things I open up for stuff.)
In addition, I am running Canva, sometimes Paint 3D, and Office 2021 concurrently.
An associated question........in this most recent Firefox, how do I run Multiple processes, but limit the number of them to 5, for example? There used to be a setting in Firefox to do that, but I can't find it.
I'm working with Windows 11-v24H2 on a Dell Inspiron 17 with an Intel Core i7-8550U CPU (about 7 years old) and 16Gb of Ram.........and sometimes I fall asleep waiting for many tabs, windows, and instances of Office 2021 to come back to work (I'm thinking they signed a Union deal, and didn't tell me about it.).
This has been going on and getting progressively worse for about 3-4 months.
Advice? Suggestions? I'd be truly grateful for any ideas you got.
