I do not know this is a server problem or Firefox problem.

I noticed when testing Bug 1447193.
Sometimes the content of the page is different when opening the same page on multiple tabs. see attached.

reproduced on 58-61.0a1. 
so, it seems server(cdn?) data is not syncing properly.

odd.. hitting a single webhead directly (eg. http://hgweb14.dmz.scl3.mozilla.com/mozilla-central/help ) and refreshing still triggers the issue.

http://hgweb14.dmz.scl3.mozilla.com/mozilla-central/help/fxheads will occasionally trigger an ise.  but that's just "Abort: no such help topic: fxheads".

fxheads comes from the firefoxtree extension.  i'm more confused by it sometimes being present rather than it sometimes being absent.

glob did you find a root cause for this bug?  Do you want to take ownership of this bug?  (I'm just triaging our bucket)

no, sorry.  t'was just some drive-by diagnostics while waiting for other tasks to complete.
iirc fxheads wasn't configured anywhere i looked.

it's probably better handled by connor or gps.
