My macbook pro with 16GB ram runs out of application cache very often, and only application running is FIREFOX MOZILLA. How to fix this?

This happens 2 or 3 times a day - every couple of hours. Then, I need to restart the laptop and clean out files (I use ccleaner). Is there a way to fix this ( system running out of application cache). Thought 16 GB ram would be big enough. Thanks for your help.

For some time now, a lot of Mac’s with Microsoft programs have been crashing. Check with Microsoft / Mac support sites.

What add-ons are you using?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
