Steps to reproduce:

I am just using Firefox 115 as normal with very few tabs open and I get a memory leak that will lock up my system and force a hard shutdown to fix it.

Actual results:

This locks up my Alma Linux system, but sound continues to play. There is no way to recover unless I forcibly shut down the PC.

Expected results:

The browser should cope fine with use for a few hours without leaking memory. But this only seems to happen on Alma Linux 9.4 and is random. I tried Firefox nightly and got the same memory leak.
