Repro steps

Using firefox Version 147.0.3 (64-bit) on NixOS with React Developer Tools 6.1.1.

Some tabs started taking 100% CPU and consuming up to 5GB memory over time. This happened on multiple different sites, github was just one of them - but it seemed to be recurring there every time I aborted the tab in about:processes and reloaded it.
Disabling the extension fixed the issue.

@Guardian88 Okay, sure; my pleasure!
Disabling solved my issue so I have no need for any fixes!

I realize the issue is fairly low-information as is, but if you wanted a profiler trace to see which devtools functions are being called I would have been happy to provide it, or any other aid.

I'll leave the issue for you to close, or keep for others encountering the same thing, as you see fit - however I'll unsubscribe!
