I tried that now.
firefox-esr is available for Jessie in version 60.5.1esr-1~deb9u1. It installs fine under ED. The first start of the browser takes almost 10 minutes until the CPU (900MHz) goes idle again. Each subsequent start takes half that time.

The first thing I usually do after a fresh firefox installation is to get some privacy add-ons to keep the adware and spyware at bay that has spread amongst the web like a cancer.
When trying to load the add-on page, firefox runs out of memory and crashes.
