Hi, I am a photographer and use an asset management and editing program called Adobe Lightroom Classic.

I run Windows 10 with AMD A10 processor, 32 GB RAM

Sounds like both Firefox and LightRoom is using the same memory locations an could be slowing down the process. This would be something you need to ask Adobe support since it seems to occur when Firefox and LightRoom process are both used.
