Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/112.0
Steps to reproduce:
after the latest update to 112.1.0, firefox seems to be drawing ever increasing amounts of RAM, up to crashing the browser.
Actual results:
computer slowdown due to lack of resources, crash of firefox once ram actually runs out
Expected results:
ram should have been freed up by garbage collection
also, this issue is definitely not isolated, see other communities such as https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/12swwpa/increasing_firefox_memory_usage/

We marked this as a duplicate, but we're trying to get information from multiple people to see if there are any commonalities in, for example, how their Firefox graphics is running. Thanks.

It seems like we have figured out this issue in bug 1828587, so your about:support information isn't needed any more. If you are using the Dark Space theme or some other theme with an animated background, you can try disabling it until we fix the issue with Firefox. If you try that and it helps the issue, please let us know in this bug. Thanks.
