Running Firefox Stable (Firefox 57.0.dmg) for a couple hours eventually results in a Frozen Mac (High Sierra).
First of all, thanks so much for any support and all the hard work on Firefox! Hope this report helps / finds like-minded souls who want to use Firefox but see it grinding their system to a halt after a bit of usage.
Repro:
- Install fresh version of Firefox 47.0.dmg on high-end Macbook Pro - Before launch, remove all old profiles - Do not install any addons - Enable Tracking Protection - Use browser normally (Logging into email, pinning a couple tabs, surfing on max 10 additional tabs) - Firefox Quantum is so fresh and fast, loving it! - Bu then: Between 10 minutes and 4 hours later, all Apps grinds to a halt. - Entire Mac becomes nearly unusable while I crawl through activity monitor to force quit - Sometimes if I cannot Force Quit Firefox in time, the system recovers - Otherwise, force close Firefox and Apps comes back to life - Checking "about:crashes" often has no results :( This means I cannot send a bug report with the crash. - Go back to Chrome and whimper b/c it feels so slow now, but does not destroy my computer at irregular intervals
Solutions Tried:
- Resetting Firefox Profiles - Deleting all profiles - Tried FireFox Developer Edition, had the same problem - Tried beta, had the same problem - Now trying Nightly. Will report back on results.

Update: Firefox Nightly has been stable on my computer with no extensions installed, now logged into my sync account but removed all extensions. Not sure what the difference is...
