1124263 - Firefox nightly loads all the pages indefinitely after showing a notification that a web page is causing nightly to slow down. Especially when electrolysis is enabled(e10)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1119442

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

Attachment: Doc1.docx

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0
Build ID: 20150121030203

Steps to reproduce:

There are no such specific steps to reproduce. It usually happens when I m browsing a bit, or opening some heavy websites like keep.google.com, etc. It doesnt happen at the same sites everytime, but whenever I get the notification of web page causing slowdown, then it is sure that firefox will now load all the pages indefinitely.


Actual results:

All the pages across all the tabs load the web page again and indefinitely, and even on closing the suspected slowing-down tab makes no difference. You have to manually close firefox, kill all the processes from windows task manager( since firefox.exe and plugin-container.exe do not stop even after closing firefox.


Expected results:

On closing the suspected slowing-tab or webpage, firefox should resume to its normal behaviour rather than indefinitely loading webpages across all tabs

Did you test in safe mode?

And with a fresh profile?

With each update daily, the crashing is less frequent but prevalent, especially on opening large number of tabs loading heavy websites
