Check your Task Manager BEFORE opening Firefox and see if any other program is using a lot of RAM.

You could also disable any and all add-ons, as well as themes and personas. Some of those are memory hogs, especially if you have a live theme.

Next, run a complete virus scan. Check for malware and anything else that may be accessing your computer.

The problem you have is not solely caused by Firefox.

You may have to also re-assess your surfing habits.
