VRAM leak through Firefox?
Recently discovered that Firefox consumes some inadequate amount of video memory - I even wanted to issue a question about this, but postponed it. Literally an hour ago, dwm.exe crashed - presumably due to the fact that VRAM was no longer enough (or RAM + pagefile, where, in my opinion, excess data from VRAM is swapped).

In general, updating Firefox solved the problem apparently.
And yes - do not trust the task manager.
1 - how about looking for viruses?
2 - if the profile (or several) of firefox survived the upgrade to quantum, or more radical updates of fox - it is worth clearing the profile (profiles) even without suspicion of malware / miners. just clean it up so it doesn't bug. the list of the most valuable files is here - https://support.mozilla.org/ru/kb/profili-gde-fire...
my choice of files to save:
content-prefs.sqlite
favicons.sqlite
key4.db
logins.json
permissions.sqlite
places.sqlite
sessionstore.jsonlz4
