I don't often shut down my Mac. Things were slowing down yesterday so I restarted, used Memory Clean's deep clean option, ran OnyX.
Overnight, I had only a few apps running: Safari, Firefox, Chrome, TextEdit. (Yeah, all have many open tabs.)
Woke up to find all apps quit & a warning I had run out of application memory. First time, I believe, since 2015!
Restarted those applications (screenshot attached) & ran Memory Clean again. Looked OK but noted Firefox as a memory hog (Activity Monitor screenshot attached).
Firefox is still something of a memory hog, though. I restart it from time to time, because I've seen it hog as many as 5 or 6 GB of my 20 GB of memory.
