Firefox browser occupies less memory compared to Chrome. Would it be feasible to use Firefox for web crawling?

When using Chrome for web crawling, my computer's CPU runs at full capacity, but Firefox handles it well. So, would it be feasible to use Firefox for web crawling, including page traversal and click operations?

Thanks so much for your feature request @nu0y4 , we'll take a look into this!

I'll explore options to make this optional.

@nu0y4 Thank you for opening the issue. After reviewing the underlying library we use in Katana for headless operations, I discovered that it does not support Firefox to the same extent as Chrome. Specific issues cannot be resolved due to Firefox’s limitations and the reduced activity in the library's development for this browser. I am eager to assist in improving the current implementation. Please provide details if anything specific can be undertaken, and I will look into them.
