In my observation, Firefox has been releasing more updates than before. What is the reason behind that? in firefox release version notes Interesting points that I found were you are fixing bugs and reporting new bugs with the every release, why do you release the product in the market if you know the issues ? with every release? What is the reason behind that?

Does this conclude here ? NO . Firefox crashes most of the times, sometimes flashplayer has been crashed , many times firefox is not reponding . Why can't these be fixed permanently?

Firefox updates every 6 weeks, and has been doing this since Mid 2012. This is part of Rapid Release, https://blog.lizardwrangler.com/2011/08/25/rapid-release-process/.

The only known bugs we ship with are either affect a very small portion of users, or aren't reliably reproducible for us to fix (if you look at the release notes there are only 4 known bugs, and they have been the same for many releases and almost nobody is affected by them).

As for your Firefox crashing and freezing, try resetting it, Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings. Flash is a separate issue that Adobe has to fix, there is nothing Mozilla can do about that that we haven't already done.
