Have you tried the built in tools for memory management?
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-or-cpu-resources?redirectslug=firefox-uses-too-much-memory-ram&redirectlocale=en-US#w_use-additional-troubleshooting-tools
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/task-manager-tabs-or-extensions-are-slowing-firefox
https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/performance/memory/about_colon_memory.html
There is a built-in task manager to view which tabs are consuming the most resources.
You can also navigate to about:memory in the url bar to get access to buttons for minimizing memory or Garbage Collection and Cycle Collection.
