Steps to reproduce:

i opened a site...seemed to be a big site...with a video file on the home page of the site...
also, there was a time delay in switching tabs..


Actual results:

i played the video...firefox stopped responding...then i opened it in other browser i have, and it worked properly there...
so i tried again in firefox, and yet it stopped responding again...

the tab didn't swtch...the toolbar froze...



Expected results:
