It does seem that about:processes and about:performance seem to be same page.
So yes about:process. When I googled it pointed me to about:performance so I have been using that without noticing that it was an alias.
finding and killing/restarting the specific tab has been working for me for a couple of months.

type this In the address bar: about:performance
I cannot get to about:performance . 'Tis not in the about:about list. When I type about:performance , I get about:memory .
click on the memory column and sort by biggest first. see what specific web pages are using excessive ram (usually close to 1gb or more). click on the tab: entryh that sucks and a X will appear on the far right, and click the X and the specific tab gets killed.. weather.com and reddit.com are the ones that typically misbehave for me.
I think firefox needs a simple feature that basically says if any tab uses X kill/restart it.
