Depending on what you're doing with FF (or any browser) it can suck up a ton of memory from buffering, and caching, video and image data. Once you kill the browser then BAM!, tons more memory for Ableton to use without contention.

I have had the same issue before I expanded my RAM.

You can view the RAM-usage in /Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor
