Screenshot from System Monitor 2019-09-24 11-34-22.png
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:69.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/69.0
Steps to reproduce:
Open https://learn.unity.com/
watch system monitor
Actual results:
A 'web content' process starts using 100% of a single processor core, cycling cores.
Memory usage by this process will start ramping up very fast, going from ~100MiB to over 8GiB in a few minutes, which will ultimately use up all available memory, freeze the system to require a hard reboot.
Expected results:
Use a reasonable and staticishy amount of memory after page load.

Hello Tommiwaananen,
Thank you for your contribution!
I couldn't reproduce the described issue testing on ubuntu 16.04, using the following firefox versions:
- Firefox 69.0.
- Latest nightly version 71.0a1 (2019-09-30) (64-bit).
On both versions i used the described add on's and in order to reach the memory leak i've used a bunch of other tabs with different top sites. So far, this didn't occur so I need to ask you to try again on the latest firefox nightly version with a clean profile to clarify this issue.
You can download Firefox Nightly from here: https://nightly.mozilla.org/
Thanks in advance,
Marking this as Resolved-Incomplete due to the lack of response from the reporter.
If the issue is still reproducible with the latest Firefox version, feel free to reopen the bug with more information.
Regards,
Description
