what is 'earlyoom'?
OOM is an out-of-memory condition, earlyoom is something that's
supposed to jump in and manage the memory use (somehow) before you run
out of free memory.
I'm not surprised at Firefox being a problem. It's a behemoth of a
program, all feature-full web browsers are, and there's a lot of bad
websites (intentional or not).
Just the other day I spent over an hour pruning all the tabs I'd left
open of things I had/hadn't finished researching over the last year.
There was a lot of, close tab I've read that, close the tab because the
site has vanished (always download anything you consider vital), and
bookmark it for later and close the tab.
