I have 272x tabs open, 170x in my main window. I have been using Tab Session Manager to save and then close windows. Try it, you can always restore the window later.

(the x in the numbers is because the display overflows haha)

How much ram does that take? I find Firefox problematic after around 10 tabs.

Don't know, not enough to cause trouble on my 16GB Mac Mini m1, with 10 other apps open as well.

Firefox doesn't load inactive tabs after a restart. They're just low overhead database entries.

Tab Session Manager is essential, as all of us Firefox users know how bad Firefox is at randomly trashing your tab sessions. I've nearly given myself a heart attack a few times over the years.
