I’m guessing most people don’t suffer from the first issue because they don’t have 800 tabs open? The bug reports were very nicely done, however.

I’d recommend using bookmarks instead of keeping tabs open and unloaded, but I do think that insane numbers of tabs should be something that Firefox can handle.

> 800 tabs

As you commented, most of them are unloaded and only 10-20 are actually "real tabs". Have also tested with less by now, same problem.

On Chrome on Android I have more tabs, 16x less RAM and 50x less CPU power, and it doesn't jank at all, so this seems solvable.

I use OneTab[1] for Firefox for this. Bookmarks do have the advantage of being integrated to sync though.
