[opensuse] Determine which Firefox tab from PID
I have a couple Firefox windows open and with multiple tabs open in each window. One of the webpages in one of those tabs is misbehaving, running the CPU up to 100% (and heating up this laptop). I have determined which Firefox PID that is causing the problem, but how do I find out which Firefox tab corresponds to that PID? Running "ps -Fp [pidnum]" gives a lot of info, but not which window and tab, or the bad webpage's URL, or anything else helpful. (Note: Yes, "kill [pidnum]" works, but I'd like to know the URL that is misbehaving.) Thanks mehrmals. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks. That's a good step in the right direction. But it shows stats on just four tabs-- fewer than half the number currently open. There's great info there, just not enough.

It seemed to show all mine. Are all your tabs in one window? If not, is it possible that some belong to a different firefox instance? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

First, I had to close down FF that was giving me trouble... something was running my CPU way too much, near to locking up my entire system. I closed about four or five tabs which weren't essential, then restarted FF. So far no obvious problems. But this sort of problem happens regularly, though more often it's the RAM which is eaten up, driving swap crazy, and slowing down my system that way. So currently I'm looking at a a system which is behaving. The term "active" is too slippery for me, maybe for FF as well. Looking at about:performance, I see entries for five web pages One is for about:performance itself (useful to display its existence?!). Another is for a web page in the same FF window as about:performance. A third is for a web page open in the only tab existing in a different FF window, a window which has been minimized since I started FF. The other two are entries listed are for two tabs in a totally different window. Currently there are five other FF windows open, all but one of which are minimized. All five windows have multiple tabs. FF's about:performance lists none of them and none of any of their tabs. I'm not seeing any commonality in the five entries listed by about:performance which distinguish them from all the other tabs in all the other windows. It's my experience that most of the webpages in the world run some javascript or similar. And I highly suspect that's the cause of the problem: some bad code which is running up the CPU (but more often RAM). Well, the problem might also originate from one of the add-ons I've installed... that may be worth a look the next time the problem comes up.

Cool script. I use "top" to do about the same, except I configure it to display processes sorted by "MEM" (or alternately "CPU"). That way, the biggest hogs are shown at the top. I can also watch if the amount of that resource used decreases or increases. I've used that to find the process to kill... and it works to bring the system back to normal speed. But it's too hard to figure out which process it was that I killed-- here, which tab of which FF window is now gone.

It is possible that the killed tabs get the small tittle gets replaced with "crashed" or some similar text, and thus you can locate them. There can be several, each process handles several tabs. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

FWIW I just had a major problem with Firefox. It brought my system pretty much to a standstill for a while, thrashing away doing something. Audio continued to play throughout. Eventually I temporarily disabled DoH and then re-enabled it and that fixed the problem. I noticed that a site I regularly visit was giving 502 errors from cloudflare at the time, so I suspect cludflare might have had some problem. It all seems normal again now. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I have a couple Firefox windows open and with multiple tabs open in each window. One of the webpages in one of those tabs is misbehaving, running the CPU up to 100% (and heating up this laptop).
I have determined which Firefox PID that is causing the problem, but how do I find out which Firefox tab corresponds to that PID? Running "ps -Fp [pidnum]" gives a lot of info, but not which window and tab, or the bad webpage's URL, or anything else helpful.
(Note: Yes, "kill [pidnum]" works, but I'd like to know the URL that is misbehaving.) Try about:performance ?
Wolfgang Thanks. That's a good step in the right direction. But it shows stats on just four tabs-- fewer than half the number currently open. There's great info there, just not enough.
Danke++ It seemed to show all mine. Are all your tabs in one window? If not, is it possible that some belong to a different firefox instance?

Try "ps asx | grep firefox" instead. I get 17 entries, but I have two FF running this moment. Killing one I get 11 entries (7 windows). - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I get: # ps asx | grep firefox|wc -l 6 but one of those is grep grepping itself... so 5 of something (?).

AFAIK firefox does not start new process for each tab/window; it has limited number of content processes that serve all current requests. Here with FF 71 it stops at 10 total processes even tough I have much more windows/tabs opened. All opened windows/tabs are listed in about:preference as far as I can tell. Number of content processes is default (8 which is max). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Andrei, thanks. That's really good to know... says that killing a PID may well kill off more than is necessary... and more than desired. :'( -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
