layout.display-list.retain = false or true has no effect on the crash. What makes Nightly crash are 2 options:

gfx.webrender.quality.force-subpixel-aa-where-possible = true  (this pref wasn't needed before https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D75465)
and the compositor enabled.
Other factor could be intel iGPU notebook, screen resolution 1360x768

layout.display-list.retain = false or true has no effect on the crash. What makes Nightly crash are 2 options:

gfx.webrender.picture-caching  = true  (If I disable picture caching, I dont get any crash)
gfx.webrender.quality.force-subpixel-aa-where-possible = true  (this pref wasn't needed before https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D75465)
and the compositor enabled.
