As the title suggest, my firefox recently started using tremendous amount of CPU and memory. Most notably when I have twitch or youtube on one of the tabs. Even without it, it seem to use quite a bit. With no video and no twitch it hold at around 1000mb memory and 17~20% CPU usage.
I've tried refreshing and going back to default firefox, I've also tried disabling hardware acceleration on flash. I also checked with malwarebytes and I have bitdefender for AV.
My basic specs are
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit 10.0
i5-4590
8gb ram
AMD Radeon R9 290x
On Firefox I only run uBlock and recently changed from Lastpass to Bitwarden as add-ons.
Any advice or suggestion is appreciated
Edit: on a side note, it lags quite a bit as well when I have twitch or youtube video running.
