When I leave Firefox (58.0) open and change to another user account on my iMac (High Sierra) and switch back, Firefox i close to unresponsive. Only solution then is to quit the app and restart. Happens on both user accounts.

I already tried the 'refresh Firefox' option.

Meanwhile I'm on Firefox 59.0.2 and OS 10.13.4, but the problem still remains.
