[OpenIndiana-discuss] firefox crashes, taking Xorg with it

[Rolf M. Dietze]

Hi,

I am running firefox 150.0.2 (64-bit) on openindiana 5.11 illumos-a94efd7875
the webbrowser becones slower and slower until it completely crashes, taking
the x-server with it, leaving me with an xdm login page. This is avoidable
with killing firefox daily, but that can't be it.
The box openindiana is running on is a dell optiplex 9020 with 32G ram with a
single socket 4 core 4 cores i5-4590 CPU @ 3.3GHz. Only a few tabs ar open,
around 10 to 12. I just did a full upgrade of oi

The firefox I am using is that from the oi repository server:
