Hail all:

So, since ever, both DeviantArt and Pinterest slow down when browsing. My system: I5 10600 KU 32 GB RAM (I know, a wee overkill, but I am used to keep like 30 and up tabs open continuously, severe Asperger's and ADHD, I am just allover the place, and not just online). MSI 3070ti Gaming x3 500 GB NVMe

Win 10 build 19044.1568 Licenced Mozilla Firefox 98.0.2

It has this with extensions on, without them on, even in safe mode. THOUGH!!! In save mode it takes a little longer for it to happen, so the extensions sure do play a tiny part as well. Still, it is mainly Firefox itself that seems to have issues.

Other heavy-graphical sites then, do not share the issue, it's truly only DeviantArt and Pinterest.

Anyone a clue on how to overcome this? Being an autistic, hyper-hyper active man, the whole should been loaded before I even turn the PC on. I have the patience of a Sith Lord, the temper of a Krayt Dragon, and light speed is still too slow, if you catch my drift.  :P

Thank you.

Kindest regards: Xog.

ADDENDUM: Oh, right, another issue: My Firefox uses a staggering 12!!! GB RAM. Sure, I have "one or two" tabs pinned and open (see above), but Firefox using 12 darn GB is ... more than say Cyberpunk, all-settings-maxed?

What's going on?

Trying to grasp the issue, since, I have 512-65536 Virtual Memory assigned to the system (on my NVMe, on a separate partition), thus, the system should be using that VM rather than my actual RAM?

Love to hear how this can be, I am a PC user since 86 (the time of the NorthStar and similar "computers" (read: big calculators, lol), and a "simple small browser" the size of not even 300mb in size (PROGRAM alone, not side data) and a 700MB Profile ... it's not quite logical, a 12GB RAM is used, I would say ... ?

Thank you. X ...
