This only happens on that one site, nowhere else?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?

I have this problem - I'vetried the previous fixes but it doesn't solve the problem - this only happens with the Apple ID login page and I have to use MS Edge to access my Apple account - I am using Windows 10 and LastPass to login
LastPass has caused issues in the past. Update / disable LastPass.
Disabled LastPass and FF still hangs and memory usage increases rapidly as before
I called for more help.
