User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:79.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/79.0

Steps to reproduce:

On Nightly.
I have @80+ tabs open. slowly closing them.
Only when closing 1 particular tab (sketch.com).

Actual results:

I have had my laptop freeze/lock-up and cannot get out of it, or worse I have had my laptop crash and auto-restart.
This has happened several times so not a one-off.
I have attached 2 crash reports in attached word doc (that apple sends to itself). These were from the laptop crashing and restarting.
it doesn't happen all the time when closing that tab, but had it twice yesterday.

Expected results:

Closed tab without locking laptop or crashing/restarting it.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

Component: Untriaged → Session Restore

I don't think this is a session restore bug...

Summary: Closing tab crashes and restarts laptop → Closing tab crashes laptop and the restarts laptop

It sounds like you had a problematic tab, and I don't think there's anything actionable here in terms of investigating it from the session restore side. We are looking to improve the crash recovery screen though, so if the browser crashed due to a tab, it will still be easy for you to get back your other tabs and windows.
