I don't notice firefox any slower than chromium, at least not until

I've simply had to start using firefox, chrome/chromium literally
destroy my system now using it to the point it'll about destabilize my
system within a day. Plus, I'm finding more and more sites simply
(again) don't work with chrome that forces me to use firefox that
does. It's like some resurgence of asp.net sites, or otherwise shitty
web code chrome simply doesn't tolerate.
Sadly use of chrome is beginning to make ubuntu almost unusable for
me, for no lack of trying, I cannot figure out why. Chrome and
chromium continue to chew up some apparently indescribable limit I'm
hitting that nothing logs or errors to the point I can't even wake it
up after dpms shuts off my display, without them I'm fine, hard
killing all chrome pids helps, but eventually once launching it, it's
a countdown to destruction. I'm about rebooting my system every few
days, starting to feel like windows 98 again.
I really start to wonder what I'm doing wrong that no one else is
doing, aside from apparently actually using linux to it's capabilities
as a desktop, and well beyond.

Is it just me or is Firefox slowing down worse all the time?
Is there anything (new) that can be done to speed it up?
I've made all the changes in about:config that I know to make.
Or ... is the problem (also) my computer?
Is there some way to clear memory other than to have to reboot?
Day by day, everything just seems to get slower and slower
until I finally give up and reboot and then things work
a lot better (just for a while).
I'm using Linux Mint.
