I seem to have memory leaks with recent Firefox (currently 74.0.1-1 from
Sid) - memory use goes slowly but steadily up, and eventually gets
maxed out and the system grinds to a halt. It takes a while for this to
happen, but I find myself eventually needing to kill and restart
Firefox.

Interesting - apparently some people get this, but some don't (I update
regularly from the Sid repos, and I don't generally see this).
