What lead you to the conclusion that this was related to
memory management?

Ouch. I understand one needs to log into Facebook to reproduce this
(without logging in, there's no contents to scroll down to on that
page).

At first glance I would suspect a Tor Browser vs. graphics drivers
problem, rather than lack of memory.

Unfortunately there's little we can do without more info.

What happens if you unplug the Tails USB stick after this
problem happened?

Indeed, apparently on Transifex not a single string relevant in
current Tails has been translated _and_ reviewed. Help is welcome:
