Yeh I'm pretty lightweight on extensions, I use only a couple, and uBlock over Adblock. It's just that sites chew through memory over time, and I'm not going to diagnose each one. Firefox already has the feature built in, when you restart the browser, those tabs don't spin up until you access them. They just need to use that functionality on a timer.

Maybe the Firefox crew could figure out how to build this in, it's definitely a case where Chrome's policy means that websites might not fix their leaks because they don't cause problems in Chrome.
