It was working. Since FF 40- Not anymore. Now when I try to open it I get:
" The address isn't valid. The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded." Hope its fixed soon. Found it useful.
FF 44.0. Ubuntu.
Thanks

I can't find the page now, and if I directly enter about:addons-memory in the address bar, FF gives an "address not vaild" error.

As the dev said, the purpose of this add-on is to check whether an add-on behaves out of the ordinary. As long as everything works as expected (eg. nothing consumes more memory than adblock) then disable the add-on and be happy! Otherwise disable any potentially offending add-on and be happy! Kind of like the Extension Defender works.

Does what it claims except it may not show all the load due to processes. Paste about:addons-memory in address bar and hit Enter.
But what is more needed is an ext. that will show the cpu load for each ext and each tab. There is one for the memory use of each tab. but not cpu.

Shows that Firefox and installed add-ons are using far less memory than they actually are.
You'll just have to check memory usage the old fashioned way:
Disable all add-ons & restart Firefox, then open Task Manager (ctrl+alt+del) and monitor the memory usage of firefox.exe as you enable your add-ons one-by-one (I recommend restarting Firefox after enabling each add-on, even if the add-on doesn't require a restart).

The idea is very fine and it looks good on the page, but why does it always show only about 25-30% of the memory reported by the task manager? I can see no point using it as it is.

Good addon

This add-on is nice, but it's kind of annoying having to disable it when I'm not using it, as it slows my download speed so much. If I had to restart Firefox every time I wanted to use this add-on, I would have given it a one star review.

After troubleshooting with Time Warner discovered it was only Firefox that was eating 15Mb/s speed. Adding Add-ons back one by one discovered it was this add-on that was the problem. Now I have gone from 11.38 Mb/s back to 32.00+ Mb/s for my wired Arris modem/router. As this computer was a direct connect to the Internet without a firewall (for testing).
Either the code is not working or it has a hitchhiker with it?
Testing was done with a complete restart for each Add-On

Very impressive

I have installed about 20 add-ons and Firefox uses up to 300MB on startup. If I disable all add-ons it is around 140MB. This add-on unfortunately tells me nothing about these 160MB difference.

Finally I can see clearly which add-on uses how much memory.

Helped me pick which addons to prune out.
A note about a disparity between what this reports as the total memory usage and what the OS tells you. This, being embedded into firefox has no way to know how much ram is being used by the process by libraries linked at runtime (.so and .dll). Only the operating system can know this, and even then, if the library is shared, it will report that ram as being in use more than once. There is no misrepresentation here. Also, take a look at the bottom of the report:
"This only includes frontend code that has locations tagged, just like any other add-on. Not included is any web content (web sites, images, etc.)"

Says firefox is using a total of 177.87 MB when task manager reports 950mb. Way off

Works Great in Firefox 37 soooo why the yellow review ? I actually think this should be part of Firefox.
