ps -Af |grep firefox

I've noticed strange output of ps -Af command of firefox process. There are strange Unicode characters in it - see attachment firefox_ps.txt.

Example:

I am not sure whether it's OK or if it's some kind of memory leak.

Comment 1 Michal Špondr 2018-03-27 07:22:11 UTC
I've just noticed it also happens on my Fedora workstation. It does not seem as a Gentoo-specific problem to me now. Both Firefoxes are synced via Firefox Sync.
Comment 2 Jouni Kosonen 2018-03-27 21:17:32 UTC
This seems to be known upstream, it's a list of blacklisted characters in domain names (network.IDN.blacklist_chars in prefs):
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1373157

and will be moved away from the command line in FF60:
