Details

Going to a URL such as https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=fe6922805c98db720a544dc001b6ec4ea5ad82cb sometimes causes Firefox to lock up. It ceases to respond to any user interaction and GNOME offers to shut it down. This isn't 100% reproducible; sometimes restarting Firefox and trying again makes it work. I'm assuming this is a problem with my setup somehow but the fine folks in #treeherder suggested I create a bug to track it. I'm running Firefox 48 on Fedora Linux. I'm also running a bunch of add-ons, namely Activity Stream, Amazon Smile Redirect, BugzillaJS, FoxClocks, No More 404s, Page Shot, Remove Visited Link, Tab Center, Test Pilot, Tracking Protection Experiment, Twitter Link Expander, and my own You're Not So Special. On IRC, it was suggested that I disable add-ons and try again, so that's something to do.
Could you try with addons disabled, and if that helps, bisect them? :-)

I can't seem to reproduce this. I'm now running on Firefox 49 so maybe something else got fixed. I'm closing this until it happens again. Thanks!

I've had random lockups like that in the past, but force-enabling e10s always seemed to reduce or eliminate the lockups. Maybe upgrading to 49 opted you in to e10s?
I don't think so; about:support says "Multiprocess Windows: 0/1 (Disabled)"
