(Keywords: perf:resource-use)
Pages that allocate memory up to the heap limit can enter a state where GC happens repeatedly without freeing up any memory. One example is bug 1867074 where this is caused by a leak.
Bug 1505622 was a previous attempt to fix problems like this.

bug 1853495 has a testcase/STR that should repro this (based on :joncos comment : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1875304#c3)

Here is a profile I got recently: https://share.firefox.dev/3xCwn18
The content process includes the tab for chat.mozilla.org, and it likely leaks memory overtime (my browser session has lasted about a month and a half).
