Lots. 28 windows. It isn't convenient to count the tabs (I'd have to visit each of the windows and count the tabs).
Firefox has tab groups btw, so you can organize lots of tabs without having to open multiple windows: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-groups-organize-tabs I have no idea if a single window with tab groups versus multiple windows has any effect on memory/performance though... my guess would be probably not... But, I figure it's worth a mention since I've found tab groups to be more convenient than dealing with multiple windows (e.g. you can name them, search for a tab, easily move tabs between groups, etc.). I restart Firefox/IceWeasel periodically when I noticed the memory usage is getting high. At the very least, it reduces the memory footprint because it doesn't reload tabs on reboot until you first focus on them (at least, that's the way I have my settings configured), so a reboot still saves your tabs but won't consume any resources for the tabs you're not actually using.
