Also, if you still have memory/performance problems, these two addons make a noticeable difference: - LoadTabOnSelect: Load new tabs on selection. This addon will prevent new tabs from automatically loading, instead loading them on selection. The intended usage of the addon is to facilitate power-users who open many tabs before viewing, but dislike auto-playing videos (and other annoyances). https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/loadtabonsele... -- - Auto Tab Discard: Use native tab discard method to automatically reduce memory usage of inactive tabs. Auto Tab Discard a lightweight extension that uses the native method (tabs.discard) to unload or suspend browser tabs to significantly reduce the memory footprint of your browser when many tabs are opened. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/auto-tab-disc... edit: typos |

As this is a built-in feature of Firefox, I'm curious if there are any additional benefits this addon provides?
Edit: Oh, I'm a bit slow, apparently this prevents loading a tab even on the initial click (the built-in option only prevents it on startup). Thanks, looks useful!
