I've had memory problems with or without TW (I think) with FF on Windows. I don't seem to have the same problems when running on linux, but that may just be that linux leaves more memory for FF to work with. I was hoping that all the changes at 57 would result in better memory management, but alas, that is not the case. The only solution seems to be to periodically close out FF.
