by Firefox user 12534656, 7 years agoI've been very pleased with the features of this add-in, but it may have a major memory leak.
I've been using this add-in in conjunction with a script that scrapes and reloads hundreds of web pages every few minutes. I've been having memory issues with Firefox lately, so I started disabling add-ins one at a time after running it for about a week.
The moment I disabled this add-in, the process memory decreased by 18 GiB. The decrease all came from the "heap-unclassified" section of the add-ins process. This suggests that this extension (over the course of potentially millions of page loads) has somehow been allocating memory to the heap but not freeing it.
I currently have a single rule set up to modify a CORS header. Let me know if I can gather any additional information to help confirm and/or debug this issue.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Roman Ilin, 11 days agoIt just works.
They even took performance into account and disabled the "Modify response body" feature by default, although they made it easy to enable.
The UI is user-friendly and pleasant.
No nonsense.
Absolutely love it.
