User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/36.0
Build ID: 20141114030206

Steps to reproduce:

No known way to reproduce.


Actual results:

I have just started using the e10s nightlies. Sometimes I will middle-click on a tab and as that tab is opening Firefox will freeze and the GUI will turn white and become unresponsive. On a whim one time I tried killing plugin-container.exe and immediately when I did that the browser started responding again. Since then I have been able to unfreeze the browser that way.

However whenever I unfreeze there is a message in each open tab stating Tab crashed 'Try again'. For each tab if I click on that button it either will work or do nothing. What always works in every tab is clicking on reload.


Expected results:

In addition, do you see the same issue with e10s disabled?

I had the same thing happening to me probably 2-3 times in the last week. It occurred mostly after I opened maybe two new tabs and tried to close one of them while they're still loading.

To make sure we are on the same page here you wanted me to install the profiler extension?
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Performance/Reporting_a_Performance_Problem
I installed it. Are there any settings I should change? Am I supposed to let it run for several days? Also, if I click stop instead of analyze where is the profile file stored? I can't find it.

It's unlikely I'll encounter this issue with e10s disabled because the issue is rare and there's no way to reproduce that I know of and I have e10s enabled by default.

I can't keep running this profiler firefox keeps freezing for no reason. I have two profiles I clicked analyze on and they are both NtWaitForMultipleObjects waiting. I uploaded the one from just now. It is a separate issue, I guess.

No Wayne it hasn't happened in at least several weeks. I've been using Nightly e10s daily since I posted and I update it manually every week or so. My other GUI freeze issues are gone as well. I don't know why. Nothing on my system has changed aside from Nightly updates and Windows updates. There is one thing I've been doing differently for a while now which is I rarely ever allow flash when I visit webpages. I don't know if that's related.
