Please provide any additional information below and screens capture if

TGM used to have a lot of memory problems in case of carrying a lot of tabs 
within groups and used to crash firefox on a frequent basis. 100+ tabs within 
10 or less groups caused crashes whenever more than 30+ tabs where in use and 
active. All functions worked according to expectations with Firefox 30.x.

Today I upgraded Firefox to 33.1.1. and reinstalled TGM from scratch. Tow 
problems showed up, I have'nt experienced like this before:

1.: Despite of arranging new groups containing several tab there is no group 
history or tab group listing. Thus it's not possible anymore to send a tab from 
one group to another simply by choosing this function via the tab's right click 
menue.

2.: Opening new tabs within one group works fine, but those new opened show up 
within all other groups as well. That also used to work different in FF 30.x. 
Tabs used to stick to their original group and/or could be moved to another but 
did'nt get reproduced within all other groups as well. Now a group states (2) 
tabs next to it's tab name, but when opened shows all other opened tabs that 
have been opened whithin another group as well.

3.: When shutting down Firefox and restarting it, the first tab always 
"forgets" it's original name and replaces it with "Start". This error happend 
before upgrading too.

Hm, have 217 tabs in 9 Groups and no crashes.

1 & 2 looks like its related to the collapsed tabs code problem. Fix for this 
is trivial. I have not implemented this code and TGM works perfectly.

@Miguel let me know if i shall change it back, then you need only to release a 
new beta. In other case we get more and more issues with the same problem in 
the bug tracker.

3. Have it also observed in the past, but at the moment it works for me. But i 
have seldom new groups.

I confirm this behaviour as well.
TGM latest beta (105).
Tab mix plus 0.4.1.7Pre 150112a1
FF 35. 
Symptoms: Tabs from one group get restored into other groups; sometimes even 
changing a group tab is enough for a tab from group A to "leak" into group B.

Because of the known bugs and past issues, the issue is probably still there, 
however I havent been able to reproduce or seen it with the lastest version 005.

RecoverMeSTT, in case you are not using the default Firefox session manager, I 
would recommend you to do so. I have never had any issues with TGM and 
TabMixPlus with the default Firefox session manager.
Also if you have or find an easy way to reproduce the problem, it will be 
really nice so we can take a look at it.

Thank you.

Miguel, I'll try to determine how to reliably reproduce the problem.

It may be related to the number of tabs open (loaded or not).
The most problematic profile has around 2000 tabs in 10 groups. (Yes, this is 
an unusual case, and I've read elsewhere here that TGM apparently stores a lot 
of "stuff" for each tab).

Other profiles with fewer tabs don't appear to have the problem yet.

Looking at my problem profile, it seems as if, when switching between groups, 
several (10-30 tabs) appear in the same position, in each group. I use Tab Mix 
Plus wit the multiline option, and when I move from TGM group to TGM group, the 
same cluster of normal, Firefox tabs appears in each TGM group. 

That's as well as I can characterise it at present. 

Moving to FF's native session manager isn't an option at present; though I do 
use the Session Manager addon as well, and haven't had much of a problem with 
it. But it is another variable to investigate...

RecoverMeSTT ty for the update and additional info. One of the ways to 
reproduce it would be to add some quality test in our releases, like in this 
case where TGM should handle and check thousand of tabs and their ownership to 
one group.

In my current setup with TGM I usually handle about +500 tabs, but managed in 
independant different Firefox processes, in example, one for musik&videos, 
another one for daily things, another one for work.. That way I can ensure 
Firefox is not overloaded with so many tabs and I can close one of the Firefox 
instances if it begins to work slowly. It works fast and its better than having 
everything in just one Firefox process.
In future, when Firefox electrolysis becomes stable and we could have one 
process for each tab in TGM or component, it will really speed everything up by 
a lot and it will be easy to identify and stop tabs with bad scripts which 
overloads everything.

Also, adding Javascript Real Time Databases would be incredible for TGM. Stylez 
John and other TGM members talked very much about it in the past :)
