    This can be solved with the help of the about:config window where you can make the changes. Just right click on the any of the area on the about:config page and click on the New->Boolean now type value text as "config.trim_on_minimize" and thats it. Now you will not get the problem of the memory leak that you are looking for.

    There is an add on that will definitely work with the freeing up the memory and is known as the RAMBack. RAMBack will cause Firefox to issue an internal notification to free up memory that is otherwise held for performance purposes. Additional items will be hooked into this notification in the future. So download and work on the same.
