Random foolishness about Firefox.

Well really only one thing I wanted to say about it. Couldn't touch the topic of FF without a friggin book post and not going there. Anyway ... was time for me to get a minimal Debian 10/Buster install setup and so during the process, one step was downloading and setting up Firefox from Mozilla on this puppy. For me this is a joyous ( Debian is evolving and progressing )and also a tedious/hectic time( as in it took me like 30 friggin hours to get the Buster install config'ed the way I prefer and am still not done, arghhhh.) Back to topic, while going through the FF settings to change them as I like, noticed it comes with 8 Content processes now out-of-box. Wth ?!?!?!
I have 2 cores on this old dinosaur and need 8 CP's ??! Personally tend to 1 CP per/cpu-core on system, so lowered it to 2 and got on with life. It's also set to 8 in the firefox-esr Debian provided. Noticed the thing/FF was being unusually RAM hoggy before I'd gotten around to re-setting this and other junk in about:config etc. So anyone have any thoughts, comments etc to share on this, please do.
