crashes with the signature are regressing in firefox 50 and later. they are mostly occurring on 32bit builds of windows. it's rather low volume though - under 0.1% of all browser crashes on beta at the moment...

some user comments from the signature indicate that they are experiencing crashes repeatedly and suffering from memory leaks (so maybe there's nothing we can do directly in this bug to alleviate the situation for them).

Bug 1319213 seems to address the problem.

Comment 2

[Ethan Lin[:ethlin]]

I don't see other new crash reports since Bug 1319213 landed and uplifted for FF 51, 52, 53.

Since bug 1319213 was fixed, mark 51/52 fixed.
