1865972 - Shortly after opening a new tab, Firefox for Android Nightly crashes, and seems to crash the launcher too

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1864557

(Firefox for Android :: General, defect, P2)

Description

[cnm]

Steps to reproduce:

Running: Firefox Nightly Android, 122.0a1 (Build #2015987111)

1. Have a lot of tabs open (maybe ~200?)
2. Open a new tab
3. Search for something and click the link

Actual results:

Firefox crashes, when it's started again, the new tab is gone.

Also, the phone's launcher seems to crash. Audio playing in other apps is paused, and any home screen widgets look like they are just starting up again.

This crashing is intermittent, but sometimes it happens multiple times in a row. I think it only started happening within the last two weeks.

Expected results:

Shouldn't crash.

I can confirm this exact same bug since the update to 120.0 (Build #2015986298) 039de7ef85+

Firefox crashes without crash log, when directly typing into search bar or opening link from suggestions. After restart, opened tab is gone, but no crash report is logged. Launcher seemingly crashes as well and restarts after a couple seconds.
