It'd be nice for firefox to have it's own top utility

I open a lot of tabs and some of those tabs use a lot of cpu.

It'd be great if there was a way to list all of your windows and tabs and show what % of cpu that they're using.

I run top from a command line and it tells me that firefox is using 133% of cpu. That doesn't tell me which firefox window is burning all of that cpu.

Maybe there ought to be a way to "suspend" firefox while I'm not using it to keep power consumption lower and have automatic reactivation upon demand.


Web browsers are practically an operating system unto themselves, why not have cpu/memory monitor and suspend functions?
