its really annoying. Unlike Firefox desktop, Firefox mobile (using nightly for the about:config) suspends tabs instantly.

When I switch to another app and go back, often the tabs reload. Or when opening another tab, the old one is deactivated and reloads when opening again.

How can I change this behavior, set the amount of open tabs to be cached until I close the browser?
