"Firefox has been terminated by the Linux kernel because the system is low on memory. Consider closing unused applications or browser tabs. "

I am using a more or less clean up to date install of Fedora Asahi Remix 42 on mac mini 2, dual boot. Very few applications are running, sometimes arduino IDE. I have perhaps 3 firefox windows open, with say 20 tabs open. No videos, or heavy memory pages.

Over the past couple of months usage, I fidn Firefox is consistently freezing, then being terminated.

My expectation is that this should not happen: ie 2015 macbook pro running Ubuntu 24.04 does occasionally crash, but not so consistently, and usualy has more going on, ie videos playing etc.

p'ease point me to the log, and I can add.
