Hello Robie. Unfortunately, this problem appeared again. Today, I have had Firefox enabled with just two tabs: YouTube and Google Translate. Suddenly, system start to slow down, disk diode was... red all the time, mouse cursor moved slowly etc. After a couple of minutes, I managed to start terminal and used '$ killall firefox' command, which helped -- system started to work faster again, clicking e.g. on a file, opened Mousepad almost immediately, in milliseconds etc.

(See bug title.) Firefox version: 55.0.2 (32-bit), e10s enabled (4. processes; changed from 2. after update), four addons, no Flash. RAM memory checked with memtest64 - no problems. I will keep an eye on this, because of a couple of months without problem. Maybe it was just an accident?
