Started opening tabs in Firefox Quantum like all you devs do during development. All of a sudden, firefox gave up and stopped loading any new websites.

Bookmarked all the tabs and closed ff. Clicked on again, the old process appearantly is stuck, so it showed a warning, closed the old one and opened it again.

Alright fine, opened all the tabs from bookmarks again. Firefox is again stuck. Realised some of the tabs might be acting up. Just to double check if it really is those tabs, decided to open them in chrome.

It opened fine and I continued to browse in Chrome without any hiccups.

    I don't have issues like that even though I'm running the nightly build.

    @deadlyRants well I am getting the prob here. It looks like the problem is tied to some specific websites.

    @tahnik try going to preferences > general > performance and set content process limit to max.

    FF will use a bit more ram but should be much faster and more stable since it's using multiple threads.

    @irene maybe the trick is that chrome can handle shit website and doesn't freeze itself while handling them well?
