You really haven't given us a lot of context about your setup, environment. So you're running KDE. Does this happen with any other desktop?
As you noticed, this sort of problem can be hard to nail down. I am aware that Firefox has issues too. Given the common roots, it's no surprise that both might have similar problems.
I only run KDE.
On Firefox you can open the virtual page "about:performance", and see information of what tabs are impacting firefox in cpu and memory, and kill those tabs.
The thing on firefox that is taking most memory (700 MB), by a factor of at least five, is something called 'Task Manager'. What is that?
That's the "about:performance" page, but mine only has 355megs.
So why is it reporting itself as taking so much memory?
And the things behind that in the pecking order were two tabs that I had already closed, some hours ago. What is that all about? I hit X (close tab) but I had already closed the actual tabs!!!!
Notifications active, perhaps?
No idea what a notification is?
