No, it is not malware, it's a new feature that can be disabled if you really need to do that. Why is two processes a problem? It's not like having another process hurts your machine in any way. Using two processes instead of one improves responsiveness of the Firefox window. Have you started to experience some problem lately? And by the way, don't almost all the other browsers use more than one process as well? So switching to another browser doesn't really fix anything when it comes to the number of processes. So do you have some other problem with Firefox?
