Can you please attach an about:memory report from when you are seeing high memory usage? We will not be able to investigate further without this basic information.

I believe i might be seeing this in firefox 55 nightly, but it is not affecting content processes, only the parent process Other Measurements 4,095.94 MB (100.0%) -- address-space ├──2,273.57 MB (55.51%) ── free(segments=530) ├──1,388.22 MB (33.89%) -- commit │ ├──1,034.27 MB (25.25%) -- private │ │ ├──1,028.07 MB (25.10%) ── readwrite(segments=2168) << pretty high for a browser not really doing anything) This is occurring in a profile which has tabs open but unloaded, with only about:memory and about:performance opened.

Well, it appears there is a memory leak in the parent process, and it has no visible cause. i opened up a completely new profile and let it sit on about:memory and about:performance and got the same rate of readwrite increase as the profile with addons.

if not, i'll make at new bug. i just caught about:performance consuming a core and causing firefox.exe to spike to 2.1GB in the clean profile, so something is up there.

Yes, please file a new bug. The original bug report doesn't have much detail so it is hard to know if it is the same as your issue or not.GraphWalker
