Firefox for Android loads from start every time its switched back from other apps
Hi
I have figured this out that when I load Web pages and meanwhile I switch to other apps like Whatsapp, and then coming back to Firefox, Firefox loads again from the start instead of continuing from where I left. Even if the Web page is loaded fully and the loading process is completed and I switch to Whatsapp or any and then back to Firefox, Firefox again starts the process from beginning and loads the same page.
This issue is not in chrome, as if Chrome is loading page and switch back and forth from other apps, chrome continues the process where I left and if the Web page is already loaded then Chrome doesn't start the process again and stays where it is.
Please look into this, else you guys rock ;)

I had that same problem on my old Gingerbread device, because Firefox never had enough memory. On my newer device, it behaves normally. I'm not sure whether there are other causes/solutions than the amount of RAM memory.
Actually I'm using Moto G and Dell venue 8 3840 (2014 Edition) both running on Android 4.4.4 so hardware and software is latest but I'm facing problem on both devices.
Are you using the app switcher?
Maybe this has something to do with how long the page is supposed to be cached... When I expand my tab list, I can see that some of the tabs are just where I left them and others have blanked out.
Hopefully and Android guru can give you a better answer.
