Hi, this is Multiprocessing which is normal, but if you are having slowness/hanging issues, try reducing the number of multiprocesses: Go to Settings > General - Performance, then deselect 'Use recommended performance settings' and change 'Content process limit' to a smaller number - try 1. See - Firefox's performance settings, and Startup, home page, tabs, and download settings. |
