User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:55.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/55.0 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Navigate to http://www.oaa-accessibility.org/example/30/ 2. Select elements from the radio group 3. Observe screenreader behavior Expected Result: JAWS screenreader reads the output of the radio group the user has chosen on the list. Actual Result: Firefox Nightly becomes unresponsive and JAWS reads out information on the selected elements 2 to 5 minutes after the element has been chosen. This works as intended when e10s is turned off as well as when the screenreader is turned off.
No longer blocks: 1258839
This issue is still reproducible with the following specs when e10s is enabled. However, it's no longer a 2 to 5 minute wait but more of a 45 second to a minute hang. Firefox Nightly - 57.0a1 JAWS Version - 18.0.4938

I'm not having any luck hitting perf issues with this test case and the latest version of jaws. STR: 1) Navigate to http://www.oaa-accessibility.org/example/30/ 2) use the tab key to navigate down to the radio buttons in the test case 3) use up/down arrows to navigate radio buttons results: wfm
