User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:107.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/107.0

Steps to reproduce:

Opened many windows and tabs and let FF run for hours or several days.

Actual results:

FF uses much memory and many computes and fills up disk space (low disk error received from W10). Many times, seemingly as a result, the screen goes black and the system freezes for 30 sec or more. Sometimes it comes back, sometimes it hands. Sometimes BSOD.

Expected results:

None of the actual results should have occurred.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Performance' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
