And the thing was, in those days when Firefox was a memory hog, it was a 32-bit process. So it was limited to a max of 4GB anyway. It made efficient use of that 4GB and worked surprisingly well with 1000 tabs, even though there were inconveniences now and again. By this time, buying an extra 4GB of RAM for Firefox was pretty cheap.
