49% of how much memory?
I am running FreeBSD with MATE. I am using firefox with two tabs open. I am also running jellyfin, and some other background stuff. And I am also running a terminal, and looking at "top" process.
My total active memory being used is 675MB. I have a total of 12GB Ram, and I have about 5200MB free.
Firefox does seem to be quite a hog.

BTW: I think almost all solar panels and wind turbines are made by China. Other countries could make them, but it would not be easy, and it could not happen overnight.
