Title:
  Firefox freezes periodically for no apparent reason

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Firefox keeps randomly freezing periodically for no apparent reason.

  It can happen as often as every few minutes, or as infrequent as every
  couple of hours. It also freezes often when the computer is started
  again from being suspended. It usually comes good after some time, but
  it's quite frustrating and makes it hard to get stuff done.

  The closest step I can suggest for reproducing it is to suspend your
  computer with Firefox open. That often causes the freezes.
